WOW. What a vehicle.

Making the switch to the Vogue TDV8 is the best thing I've done in years. I have a 300-350 mile commute. On Tuesday i sold a Jaguar XK and got my Rangey. On the drive home today I got from Heathrow to Lincoln in 2 hours 30 minutes, and got 30.2mpg! I've averaged 28.4 mpg since fill up on Tuesday which was a lot of stop-start crap o the M25 and around Heathrow. At this rate I'll see 600 miles on a tank.

Bloody amazing!

I was quite pleased with 13.5 mpg in my S/C today! Still it is at 66.7 pence per litre, so works out at 27mpg compared to diesel. Only a third of the Range though unless I use both LPG and Petrol tanks!

TDV8 sounds great!  Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

I miss Dunston, ex GF worked in the pub many years ago. My parents are in Branston and I work at Heathrow funnily enough.

What was your average speed? Thinking of a 4.4 TDV8 in a couple of years to replace the LPG wagon. 2012 4.4 TDV8 Westminster

If you're still trying to sell it Graham that's not good advertising!  Range Rover-less at the moment - Pining!

I'm keeping it for now.... Been very useful so far (twice) as a spare car when the FF breaks down or needs "mending"...  Graham
