Some complain about 19mpg from their TDV8's

This is the worst fuel consumption I have ever seen on one of mine, all time low hit while while in low box offroad

Jeez, that's Porsche Cayenne Turbo territory!

Have you suddenly noticed an absence of good taste?

I dread to think what an S/C would have achieved if that is what a diesel does! 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Almost as poor as the V12 Jaguars from the 70s which could get as low as 4.5mpg Big Cry

As Thrasher will know 2010My has 3 trip computers and the one in the photo one is the journey average setting which works from start-up of engine until switching off. The other two are conventional Trip A and Trip B like the older cars have.
So that was my average just over a couple of off-road stages. For the round trip to Galloway which was a total of 220 miles including all the forest driving I had 34mpg for the trip there and 31 for the trip home again, all in all I burned 1/4 of a tank of diesel for my day out. 2018 Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4 PHEV in Melting Silver - it’s whisper quiet in EV and polluter modes

Petrol & Diesel was cheaper then, though. 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded

I'm sure my carburated 3.5L RRC could beat that. Unfortunately there's no trip computer Rolling with laughter .

Not really surprising if you ask me. Par for the course (so to speak) when off road.
