What do you mean by a bit too much on the power???

--- Quote from: "Bush Tucker Man" ---
I've been getting
24.7mpg
26.7mpg
And over the last 300miles; 28.2mpg


Can 30mpg be near at hand.
Is this feasible from a 110Td5?
(used to see an average of 30-32mpg from the 110Tdi)

Sounds about right for a Td5 to me, mine generally does around 27mpg, driving it fairly steadily and with no offroading involved, mindyou I never managed more than 27-28mpg from mi' old 300 Tdi Disco.

My 90 TD5 will give 30 mpg normaly and 35+mpg with overdrive used. This is on motorway, back roads and the short trip to work. Have all terrains fitted and no roof rack.

Maybe its as said other factors like Smo said. Type of tyres, weight, roofrack, inflation of tyres, snorkel and red stripe.

Xtremeteam:
if you auto logic it & drive gently you can squeeze 30 + relatively easily
