depends, i get 24mpg, but i do lots of short town driving

what journey and speeds, driving style was it  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Depends on road conditions, driving style, heavy right foot, etc., etc. Also I wouldn't rely on the on the read outs, you need to calculate from measurements to be accurate. An older thread also talked about replacing the MAF sensor. Mine is a 2007 and never had anything less than 33 mpg, up to 39.

It was a mixture of motorway (steady 70mph) A road (50-60mph) and short town journeys. I have a light right foot  It better to laugh than cry

I mainly drive around rural areas and get just over 40. This rises when I go on long motorway trips. My son has an identical FL2 and gets about the same wherever he drives. (ie across fields or on motorways) 3 x FL1 2 manual + 1 auto
5 x FL2 4 manual + 1 auto

Click on the fuel pump icon in my sig. You will see the story over the past 2 years. Presently an overall 28.1 mpg including caravan towing. 32 mpg solo only. 10MY (Sept 09) TD4 HSE Auto in Stornoway Grey (Now Gone)

08 FL2 TD4 SE Manual in Rimini Red (Now Gone)

that mpg tracker is really good you have there. Ive got the same spec FL2 as you (10MY TD4 Auto HSE) and over the last month of ownership im hitting around 33mpg on the dash.

I pretty much brim my tank on average about every 8 days, and take it down to just below a quarter tank each time. Recorded miles is around 420 with about 50 miles left on the range.

I take the dashboard MPG with a pinch of salt as ive never felt they are accurate, merely a guideline, and prefer to look at miles travelled plus the remaining range. Couple that with how often I fill up and im happy with 32-34mpg.

I've been used to a disco3 auto and with the same style of driving would of achieved about 25mpg. My freelander is a manual and I was hoping for about 40mpg......time will tell. I know most people say the lieometer is inaccurate but in my disco it was always within 1 mpg. It better to laugh than cry

my old TD4 manual FL2's both gave me around 37mpg and with careful driving I managed 45mpg a few times. (although that was long motorway driving with air con off)

You don't think it's over reading?

Me and Dad were talking about this the other night, hes got a hse D3 auto, mines td4 xs 2007 auto lr2. His around town mpg are pretty much the same as mine, but I get abit better on a run, to be fair the disco 3 don't do that bad on fuel Freelander 57 plate XS Blue Auto

My d3 auto used to regularly return 23-24mpg around town and 27mpg on a run. I was hoping a manual freelander which is a lot lighter would return at least mid thirties  It better to laugh than cry
