97 2.8 TD SHOGUN LWB MANUAL.

SHORT RUNS+OFF ROAD==22 23 MPG.

LONGER RUNS A ROADS== 28 29 MPG.

MOTORWAYS 60 MPH==== 32 33 MPG.

THERE ARE VERY FEW 4X4s THAT WILL GIVE YOU GOOD MPG.

ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE HAD WAS AN OLD DISCO 300 SERIES.

IT DID 33 34 MPG OFF ROAD AND CLOSE TO 40 MPG ON MOTORWAYS AT 60 MPH.

IT WAS A ONE OFF I HAVE HAD A FEW DISCOS SINCE AND THEY HAVEN`T COME CLOSE TO THAT SORT OF MPG.

V8 Disco 2 auto with AT2s. Dread to think what the consumption is, about 300 miles per tank. Whereas my med roof, mwb Transit consistently returns 38mpg, and the air-con runs all year round to prevent condensation during winter otherwise it steams up as soon as you breathe. But I only do about 5,000 miles a year in the Disco, as opposed to about 25,000 in the tranny.

02 FORD MAVERICK XLT 3.0ltr V6 "Petrol" :)

250mls to a tank , great off road, lots of power and torque.

Cost me less to buy than a DSL :good:

I have the 2.0L XLT 410 miles per tank at £74 and I do 1200 a week .Had it on LPG burnt the valves out had to put a re-con engine in it :( :(

Nissan Patrol 2.8 td se, @ 19 around town and 28 ish on a run doing 60, about 23/24 mpg doing 75-80. The vehicle runs much smoother at 75 than at any other speed, don't know what it does in 4wd on the fields, most of my off road is in Wales and very steep and bumpy so just watch the needle drop :sad1: but does what it says on the tin.
