Have missed your posts re: fuel consumptions.

Did a trip from Sydney to Young via Boorowa approx 380km @ 4.7 L/100
Return trip, took it easier via Wombat 350 km @ 4.1 L/100
Was sitting on 4.0 until I hit the city.
Anyway how do these manufactures get the figures they state on the
brochure. I cant get anywhere near there estimate of 6.1 even in the city.
Take care Neil.
you must drive VERY conservatively. i was lucky to get 6.1 or below on my 2.0tdi comfortline when i had it. mostly up around 7 or 7.5. and you cant count the cruising on a highway, i can make my car sit at 3 point something on a straight flat stretch, it has to be a mix of city/highway to have relevance.
