what sorcery is this!?????

best consumption I've ever seen is 9,05l/1oo while touring Lesotho. I figure it was the sub-zero temps that made the difference. --

do you drive round in boots?

you need light weight shoes, here's mine;

and a short skirt to keep the weight down probably helps too.

^ I thought I was doing ok today.

250 miles on the half way mark, however this includes the dropping kids off at holiday club then my commute to work.

I tend to find my 110 does between 28 and 33.

I'm happy with this as it does not tend to go down when loaded up either it just does what it does. Being say high up helps as you can read the road and my first car being a mini (original one) you get used to using what ever speed you have and not using the brakes

611 is good going !!, could you eeek 650 !!

Best I had was a E320cdi Merc estate (with a Brabus eco box on it...) with the space saver having had a puncture, It had a long range tank and the amount to empty was 1000 miles !!!! given the performance that was a great car.

Orange light came on at 578

Hoping to make 615 miles. Don't think 650 is possible although I did get caught in traffic both ways on M1 today and m6 Tuesday evening so maybe a few extra miles had things been clear?

Ps. Sorry for the delays on the m1 and m6

525 miles is currently my fear limit at barely alive tank needle in a stock 2.4-90 (33 mpg).
For 600 I think you have to have something special. Never forget: cars have owner, Landrover have field service personnel.
