It's obviously a long term display. There are 2 different trip counters which you can reset giving average speed, mpg etc and a 3rd one which resets each journey which I tend to leave on to display my average journey mpg.
Have a look in the handbook or have a play with the computer using the right hand "ok" button on the steering wheel (on 13my onwards models anyway, not sure if older models are the same) Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

2007 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Baltic Blue

On a 2008 FL2 that is going to be a running average. There was no instantaneous mpg readout on the pre facelift cars.

Mine is a 2008 MY2009 and doesn't have instantaneous MPG, only average MPG.
So it was either an option, or a slightly later update of the Ipack. I am planning on upgrading my Ipack software at some point, to add some extra information. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4. Soon to be sold.

I reset mine every time I fill up, I like seeing how high I can get it too, so far the highest is 35.6. Incase you don't know just hold the button on the end of the indicator stick for about 5 seconds and you'll reset it then it'll start over. ps put slippers on instead of lead boots LOL

that's made me laugh, tbh I don't care either, it's the comfort I like, it's the mpg thing that keeps me awake seeing what I can get out off it.
