  hi,
      ive got no use for my navara anymore so im looking at flogging it and getting a frontera sport, im really after a diesel one, with either the 2.8, 2.5 or 2.2 engine. does anyone know what sort of mpg im likely to get from them?

My LWB 2.8 is a bit modded and Ive just done a mpg test and Im getting 28mpg  average but slightly less if I just stick to shorter 5 or 6 mile trips in traffic.

For a 2.8 in good running order, you should be seeing mid 30's. They are direct injection so supprisingly economical.
