    Thats great economy! Benefits of the aero design being put into these vehicles. I read a report on the aero development of one of the Land Rovers and it was a really interesting read. I think 130kmh was about what I settled on also with the Disco2 when there were open speed limits. I most definately wasn't getting 10/100km at that speed (or any speed for that matter!)
    Cheers

    Prior to bolting all the crap on the D4 I did a run up North.

    160km/h @ 14l/100km

    Awesome feeling when it lowers and tightens up in Autobarn mode…

    Somewhere I have a photo of the fuel burn of my old V10 Touareg doing 160 kph in the NT burning 10/100. The engine RPM was about 2000 RPM from memory.

    And I discovered that at 180kmh it actually changes up a gear
