the trouble with your calcs James is that someone in london who has a tdv8 for instance and pays high fuel prices will have a different cost to someone with the same vehicle in swindon for instance...so in reality its not a level playing field.. ... - .- -.

I suggest to also take other cost "linked" to the car in account, road tax differences, insurance cost differences etc. in the km price ! MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!

see your point Stan but that is their "real life" cost, whether it be MPG or cost per mile. I agree that different areas and environments (town vs country) affect things, but mixed driving should average things out? |

I'm not sure it does tbh, you are just going to see a regional hike among the same variants, I have been forced to fill up £1.55 a litre before now, and as cheap as £1.31 - that's a big difference over a few hundred litres! Land Rover Addict

Same thought had crossed my mind Dolphinboy, now I am LPG I always work out my cost per mile fill to fill, I get between about 21 and 24p per mile dependent upon LPG prices. 03 4.4 V8 petrol / lpg. 1st of many hopefully. I love my Rangie |

i dont think range rover owners worry to much about fuel prices its more of an educated interest that prompts peeps into mentioning mpg's... ... - .- -.

Who's worried? Some people may be interested to know what it costs to run LPG for comparison, just like some may like to know what it costs to run using Biodiesel. |
