range rover 4.6 mpg
Discussion
just took my 4.6 for its first long run to go and collect a caravan. i have heard you could get 17.5 mpg according to the computer but i was amazed when it got to 22.8mpg average then when i picked up the caravan and waited a while for it to settle it only went down to 22.2 mpg average on the return journey. just thought i would share this.
It sounds to me that your computer is telling you porkie pies,and quite large ones at that.
I have never seen better then 17.1 on my P38 Vogue,but normally a lot less then that.
And mine has a nasty habit of telling me i am doing 17 it tells me the range i have left in the tank , and just suposing it tells me i have 300 miles range and i do another 20 miles it tells me my range is now 260.
But dont you just luv them.

On our first M Reg 4.6 HSE it'd do just under 22mpg on a steady long distance run. Around town or more heavy right footed driving would be a lot lower though.I have never seen better then 17.1 on my P38 Vogue,but normally a lot less then that.

i was driving like miss daisy and basically didnt go much over 2200 revs and sat at 56 mph most of the time, the roads were quite clear being sunday morning. i was on lpg and did 290 miles on £65.00 of lpg since being home the average is dropping but you would expect that. well pleased though as they are nice motors.
k. Still a cracking car though.
and i was running LPG so equaled about 70mpg lasted about 5 miles until it read 20, Bugger!Gassing Station | Land Rover | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
