Scotland 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 GS Auto Fuji White
Pleased with MPG

On a weekend break we covered 750 miles in 4 days, Mallaig, Isle of Skye, Fort William and Inverness. No motorways. 41.8 mpg.
I used command shift on the hill roads which I find helps fuel consumption as well as adding a little fun to the drive.

A route I use regularly, to Comp Safaris and Hill Rallies, is 96 miles return and mostly on hilly twisty country roads one of which is single track. Auto only 29-31 mpg command shift 35-37 mpg.
I do have a blue badge.
