They are an awesome vehicle but the electrics can be a little cantankerous !

12l/100 I almost thought it was a diesel... I can get that kind of value when I reset the consumption monitor whilst driving on the highway and I can keep going for a while, but normal driving I never get below 16l/100km and that's when driving veeeery easy.
Then again, where I live we do not know what space is the nearest highway is 15K's away and even then you can't drive on cruise control for long stretches unless it is past 23 and before 6. I guess from that point of view I basicly live in one big city
As far as the winch goes, I have needed it on several occasions but I might have been actually trying to get it stuck
Cheers,

I don't really know why it is so good re fuel. I don't think the PO did anything to it.
Might be just my driving - I gave the leadfoot stuff away quite a few years ago.
My normal drive is home at 900m elevation down to Bairnsdale at sea level, 280km return ~twice a week.
I do travel at 100kmh+ where possible.
I have read that they run lean at mid range speeds, don't know.
Defender gives me 9l/100 for the same trips.
Still learning.

They do burn a bit lean at certain rpm's, so much so that it could be a problem, according to some.
I since have fitted tornado chips and it has improved my consumption and the engine is running a tad bit cooler. My increased consumption currently is probalby (I found out yesterday) a once again locked up vcu -sigh-
