That is impressive for a V8 TD.
I did Melbourne to Sydney and back in my Jeep Grand Cherokee TD and averaged 8.4 Lt per 100 Klm's which included running around Sydney.

Just done a Drive Wollongong to Byron Bay 8.4 per hundred measured.
At the pump. Read out was more optimistic at 7.8/100!
I know... when one read 7.9 I lept for joy, but it worked out at 9.4..😕😊😊
Well I have tried very hard to get economy reading on my recently acquired SDV8 but unfortunately I have got so addicted to flooring it that I am in double figures! I may calm down in the future....
Vehicle is actually better than I thought it would be so very happy so far.
They are great with the SVD 8 although I am getting a fault atm high pressure fuel sensor. Away from home so just resetting with my code reader. This has occurred before but after checked by dealer not been back for 6 months.
Picked up my new (second hand) HSE SDV8 Dynamic Tuesday afternoon.......very happy [biggrin]
Topped up the fuel last night after travelling 650 Klm's. Managed to squeeze in 71 Lt.......which worked out to 10.9 Lt per 100 Klm's.
Not too bad given that I towed in traffic for around 120 Klm's......and played with the 'WOW' pedal a bit too much [bigsmile1]
Heading off this morning for a 3 1/2 hour trip, mainly freeway, so will be interesting to check the economy after the trip.

Did the 3.5 hour + freeway trip yesterday, which involved a bit of twisty country road driving through the Ottway's.
Ended up doing a total of 466 Klm's with an average (according to the trip computer) of 7.8 Lt per 100 Klm's. That is amazing........if its correct.
Cheers, Craig
