RE: Real world mpg

Yes - I had 3500 miles on mine when I locked it up in October and my fuel consumption got worse rather than better - Ia m used to my LR's not really showing much improvement before 4000 miles and then it seems that the ECU is programmed for things to re-map at 6000 and 10000! It has only done 40 miles since October as I have been away from home

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

I know published figures are generally totally unrealistic but that as a real world example is shocking. I persoanlly would have expected maybe 35-37mpg would have been your real world figure.

Arrived: 4WD SD4 Auto, Prestige, LUX Buckingham Blue w/everything apart from rear screens.
Current/ For Sale: C63 AMG Estate.
Gone: RRS TDV8, F360, Boxster S x3, F328GTS, Caterham etc...
