I get near 30 mpg on the daily 10 mile trip down country lanes to work, but mine has 29" tyres and a lobster box. I dont know what it was like standard as it was only like that for 3 days.

Std they arn.t much better. 30mpg is doing well and if your seriously going to off road you need bigger tyres which means poorer mpg. I've had mine down as low as 20mpg. Also the size of the tank@ 7 gals means looking for frequent fuel stops. They're great fun for short trips but a cheap diesel disco ( i'm sorry to admit) would make a better long distance overland vehicle. Remeber once you get to croatia the diesel is nice n cheap.
zippy:
well anyone noticed jimny are starting to get modified to replace the samurai's now coz of the parts and vec numbers issues?
And they look quite good :D
jimny gary:

Hi there, you most certainally don't buy a Zuk for the economy or the carrying capacity. They are best off road. My 200tdi Disco with 200,000 miles on the clock still does 28-30 mpg solo and 22-23mpg towing a 2 1/2 ton box trailer and that has the aerodynamics of a small bungelow. My Zuk is only used off road now and the Disco is my road car. I think if you want economy then diesel is the way to go. Best of luck.
