Its starting to annoy me... - jrinns - 03-11-2012 07:02pm

I got this for the wife in March and for the family trips

Its done 7000 miles now and on a run its doing 33MPG, its poor and I don't see it improving.

I loaned my fathers new 3.0 Jag XJ the other week and got 39MPG ! something is not right for a 2.2 diesel getting this mpg.

That's the MPG, no onto other things that annoy me,

its just too small, not the cars fault but it dosnt suit me
The drivers seat is not very comfy.
The Bluetooth hands free had a mind of its own today and has worked fine in the past.
Last week the boot button wouldn't close, happened twice now
Build quality , gap in front dash is annoying me.

I'm not a range rover hater, love the brand and UK, had a sport previously but something feels rushed with this.

Rant over. I must say the wife loves it but I cant wait to replace my 325 with a new 530d or 330d in the new year.

forgot to mention its an auto SD4 Dynamic

Jag has better Cx and much smaller front section area = result is smaller drag. You can NOT buy a SUV and expect it to be "low consumption" Smile Cosidered Golf TDi ?

Jag also has 2 less driven wheels, the extra 2 of the Evoque accounts for a lot of wasted energy
