Hi

Sure it's been done a lot of times before. But considering 4.4 2004 vogue to buy very soon. Budget is 8-9k. Everybody suggests to buy the 4.4 over td6.

What is real fuel situation on this for me. My wife is expecting and it will be used to the local London drive to shopping. Family runs and weekend local social drives only.

Very very little mororway runs

What fuel can I really expect. As I say only do about 4-5k miles a year anywa as I have another work car.

Thoughts appreciated on real mpg to expect for town driving. And also how many miles to the tank. So I can compare to my current SL320 1996

Thanks

Tbh Camel. Ur right. Whether it's 15 or 19 mpg. Does it really make a diff ?! Lol

I should be asking what the likelihood of major problems are of the car with 80-90k miles. Could be a nightmare. Or could be completely hassle free

Don't want regrets after.

Autotrader says the vogue 4.4 MPG is 12.7 mpg for town driving.

Does that sounds realistic or reasonable to any 4.4 Vogue owners? what is realistic mpg for town drives only with medium weighted foot.

thanks

find one that's already been converted to lpg ?
but then have to spend money servicing the LPG and often there are problems with them too, from what i understand.

think buying a rr which already has a good lpg system is still best option . Any problems with lpg system will be least of your worries on a 12 yr old rr !
if a i get a RR Vogue with LPG system, do i need to service that regularly? how does that work, in terms of costings and useage etc

thanks
