Looks great - you should easily get +20 mpg though - mine averages 24.4 but I did get it chipped.

Looks lovely! I fancied the TDv8 but opted for the TDv6 which is not as quick but sufficient for me and I get between 30-35mpg. Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20" |

yea 28 is normal for the average motorway run. Ive seen as high as 30-32. I also almost died of boredom in the same journey .

I was going pretty quick so the parking sensors didn't really have chance to beep. I have worked out it was a slight blind spot behind the rear "pillar" and that would explain why I didn't see it. Yes, defo slowing down now.

I think the difference in MPG between driving like a saint and a more sporty application of the go pedal is around 10%. I spend about £80 a week on fuel and think the extra £8 a week is bloody good value for the extra entertainment provided from using the TDv8 "properly". Even after 50,000 I still can't help smiling everytime that smooth surge of power starts to reel in the horizon.
