300Tdi economy - Land Rovers Only

nzoliver · 02-11-2006, 02:28 AM

Hi all

Been here before but...
What does everyone get from their 300Tdi (auto).
I get about 700km (435miles) from a tank.

Have worked it out to be about 31.44mpg on average over 3046km (1891 miles).

How say you all???

i'm getting 650 km a tank city driving and about 700 km on the highway. Yours sounds pretty economical.

31.44mpg out of a 300tdi auto is pretty damn good! You won't get much more out of a manual!

On a recent 2000km round trip to Victoria my wifes manual 300tdi averaged 12.3 kilometers/litre.

Well all,

My DIsco is officially getting 23mpg. How's that? It is about the same as my last 1. My Disco II got 17MPG average. Hmm
