Since the weather has warmed up a bit (this itself helps) I've done a couple of 40-50 mile mostly motorway journeys in my auto and got 40mpg. You just have to drive like a granny at 60mph, which actua ... |

I had my 2nd service (30K) done at Lancaster Reading last week, total cost £414. I didn't buy the car there, but it's a lot more convenient to get to than my selling dealer so I thought I would give t ... |

I bought my Tonga/Alpaca FL2 on the basis of seeing it at the dealer, had no intention otherwise. It is a brilliant combination. |

"Tonga Green is only for farmers".
Not sure I agree with that! It's the only colour that matches the Land Rover badge for a start... |

I only got 1 disk with my car, should I have 3? It did work to the Alps but couldn't select destinations in e.g. Switzerland other than by scrolling the map to the approximate location. |

You don't have to store the settings, on mine (HSE) it remembers the last position the left mirror was in when in reverse, and selects that every time you select reverse. I've never needed to store th ... |

Hi there, and I am sure you will enjoy the HSE!
The laurel trim can indeed easily be swapped for the silver trim - I had this done on my car (also 08 HSE) before I took possession of it, and the de ... |

My car has Wranglers and at its 15000 mile service last week the tread depths were reported as 7-8mm everywhere! So it must depend on how you drive and on the actual tyre make quite a lot. |

Thanks ttc546 - I am thinking of using Lancaster Reading for my first service due in a month or so as it's my local dealer, but not where I bought the car. Price not too bad, but still a lot for an oi ... |

One of the reasons I got a FL2 was because of the hard ride on my previous car (Golf GTI) and I now have an HSE with 18" wheels and it's great for ride comfort. |

I'd agree about auto vs manual when not driving in town. I have an auto and can easily get 36-37mpg on a trip. When my car was at the dealer I had a manual for a day, and could not get better than 37m ... |
