Ok, I had one of those and this is a Range Rover, right? 4.0, 4.6 or Overfinch? I saw much better from my 4.6 HSE. Although in fairness it might have dipped to that towing heavy stuff in town.
1998 4.6, decats, K&N panel filter, Janspeed stainless system. In fairness to it, I didn't drive it to eek economy out of it, it sounded too good, and I also live in Northumberland so we're not short of hills and valleys, but we are a bit short of long flat motorways.I never towed with it, and it used to return around 12-14 before the decats, I have to admit even I was suprised what they did to the economy lol. I suspect it was a mixture of slightly worse economy directly attributable to the decats, and a good bit of extra beans thanks to the noise it made, it made a lovely burble on overrun!
I think the best I ever saw out of it was before the exhaust and on a long motorway trip down south, I had it on cruise at about 56ish, sat in the inside lane and it did about 18-19mpg on the trip.
Lovely car, I'd have another in a flash, I did quite a bit of tinkering with mine, it was quite tidy.

My Clio RS197 has been sat at 33.5 over 1600 miles mixed driving including a bit of stop/ start every day.
The best I've seen is 35.2 mpg on a long run at 60 mph, I gave up trying after that!
I'll get a pic tomorrow.
Sounds right. 197s and 200s have thirsty engines.The best I've seen is 35.2 mpg on a long run at 60 mph, I gave up trying after that!
I'll get a pic tomorrow.
