My v8 generally gets around 300-320km out of 70litres of LPG (21.5-23l/100km) city running. I rarely run it on on petrol as I only have the small sub-tank and I can see the needle move as I drive.
I recently took a 2100km trip to SA and averaged 18.1l/100km.
The last trip to SA in our Td5 Disco we got 9.6l/100km, around 900km per tank.
But around town we are lucky to get 750km per tank.

Just think - it won't be too long until this debate becomes a TDV6 vs V8 debate! https://www.aulro.com/afvb/
costs me around $130.00 to fill my td5 disco auto and get around 800km range a lot less for towing and low range. I have a very heavy foot
I dont own a TD5 but do own a Tdi disco and i dont think i would do anything differently if i had my time over and was looking for a disco now. I would still go the diesel, even with the higher cost of diesel i still think i am in front. I am not going into the debate of what is better they obviously have thier pros and cons, but i do have to say those pros and cons are pretty much eliminated with the TD5, they are a top engine, even more so when chipped, pulling up hills at the legal speed limit isnt a problem, getting away from the lights might be different but i didnt buy a 4wd to drag people off at the lights.

In my case $800 for the ECU an $850 for the intercooler - yep, thats it. :DQuote:
