Hello my question is sort of like Robs but with a slightly different emphasis. I’m actually quite happy with the projected performance of my SD4 Auto (I haven't got my car yet) but with 0-60 8.5 secs it seems OK (I'm not buying the Evoque to replace a sports car) but one area I'm less than overwhelmed with is its fuel economy. I know you probably don't have much call for this sort of “tune” but I was wondering do you think it’s possible to maintain the RRE's current level of performance but improves its fuel consumption by say 5-6mpg?

Hi
I may be out of turn answering in this thread as its Gary's thread but Im trying to help if i can for advise and thats all. Gary i hope you dont mind.
My thought process is this, If you could gain 5-6 Mpg without compromise so maintaining the very same power output that Landrover made it then Landrover would have already done it for sure, and then you would as a result be paying less road tax as the emmisions will have been less than they are now. Im not saying that a gain is not possibile but you cant gain on MPG and keep the exact same power as the factory power.
I think the quotes average MPG is fantastic as standard for how the car drives, more is better i fully agree but i still think its good as standard. That said mine is no where near the standard figures yet lol.
