well it never seems to let me down
flew through the MOT last week no issues except 1 number plate bulb gone
520 mile round trip to Newcastle and back averaging 39mpg
cruising at 70ish. not a glitch it just purrs along
have give up on major servicing, just have oil swapped twice a year
and fix any issue as they come along
6 years of ownership , ( Longest car i have kept ) and still love it ..

I’m in the same boat, MY12 with 105k. It’s been up and down the UK, across the EU with no issues. I was on a run last year, the Cayenne in the group had be recovered and was just in the shop for 3 months waiting for a part! Great motor and I’ve almost sold it twice and I go back to why? 2018 Telsa MS
2012 Range Rover Sport HSE+
1990 Porsche 944
1985 LR 90 Soft top V8

Yup.
In the same boat. Had it for six year. Went all the way to Morocco this year, didn't miss a beat.
What else can tow 3 tons across a wet field and still drive in comfort with a 3 metre gazebo (folded up) in the boot.

 RRS 2012 HSE Lux Alive stage 1 remap. timed heater, General Grabbers, sump guard
D3 with BAS & general grabbers (gone)
Defender with 3 winches and other subtle mods (gone)

Great to see positive responses,
i guess forums are usually there for people with problems,
so all you hear is negativity.

39mpg? Was it being towed?

That's a phenomenally frugal RRS.  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

that's what I was thinking, done a lot of miles over the last weekend and was happy to get 32.9 from my SDV6 2013

It's a bit hilly where I live and the roads (and drivers) are very slow - I'm lucky to get 23.

i guess i got Lucky with mine regarding fuel
although i rarely put my foot down now , just happy to chug along ( avoiding any more point on my licence ) rarely do i excede 2500rpm
i did achieve average 43mpg once going down to bristol, i think it does make a difference which fuel you use as well , i usually put premium in if going on a longer journey give the engine a clean too

saying this , if i am just shifting around town it does go down to 25mpg
but i do use it mainly for long trips usually

Is this measured mpg or what the car tells you on the dash? And 43mpg? Really? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

it is what is displayed on the car dash , it is only the 3.0l sdv6 not a V* jobby

Here is snapshot of dash MPG average
this was after that journey to Newcastle and a few run around trips since i got back last wednesday
still showing 34MPG

And here is the Lie-O-Meter for my 5.0L dash, I know it's not good on fuel but it ain't that bad




Cheers
Col

great figures
