Mine's been doing about 8mpg, down to about 6mpg with a strong headwind, and probably something like 3-4mpg in sand. But then, it does weigh 5 tonnes.
Old Warthog:
Right then, just bought a 3.9. Put 70 quid in yesterday (asda) whict then showed half a tank. Argggg :roll: . But since done 200 miles and still shows half. :shock: It's a 1986 auto witn (anecdotally has a 3.9 mid nineties police engine in it). On guesswork, about 18 to 20 I'd say.

Range Rover Blues:
Blue is on a draw-through LPG system (that's out of date BTW) and does better than 3 miles per litre, perhaps 3.3 on a good day if the engine is running spot-on. That's probably a bit lean.
RRR has just been LPG'ed on a multi=point and the first tankfull did 160 miles, that's 60 litres. If should improve a little as the system beds-in but it was tuned for a balance of power and economy. You can do that with multi-point.
Now I've never bettered 16MPG but with the aircon on I can make £80 of fuel dissapear in 180 miles. I'm glad I'm not the only one seeing economy in single figures.
One blessing, it's no worse with the caravan on.
