I travel 1 mile from the house to a dual carriage way. Then 33 miles to the airport, trying to keep to the 70mph at the moment. I have noted an increase in the mpg as it is now displayed at 29.7mpg.

I don't know if anyone' s interested in the i6 figures, but I think they are quite impressive for a 3.2lt engine. Motorway driving is around 10.5lt/100km and combined is around 13lt/100km. Taking into account the engine size, acceleration and power I'm very pleased with that. |

I'm managed to average 30.3mpg for 8 hours today on the motorway, sat on the adaptive cruise at 70.............. was surprised at the number of Freel2's that I saw storming up the 3rd lane like they were off to an emergency, Freelander2's are getting as common as RRSports these days.

To get the best mpg you need the manual, aircon off, and don't use cruise control, make sure tyres are at right pressure, my old manual got 46.8 upto Newcastle from Bedford. Talking of which Clarksons rerun doing the Audi to Edinburgh and back was on the re runs on 'Dave' channel last night. Audi said it was impossible for him to beat 36mpg average...he got over 40mpg!!! |

I agree 'np', although because I cover a higher than average mileage I have the opportunity to try different styles and see the results quite quickly and as sad and boring as it may sound 'messing' about with styles helps pass the time. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
