71.3 mpg!
Yep, that was the mpg I averaged yesterday on a 200 mile round trip consisting of motorways, A roads and country lanes.
Unfortunately, it wasn't in the D3 but in SWMBO's Seat Ibiza diesel!!MY11 Disco 4 SDV6 HSE

Made me look in the vain hope you may have found a new tank additive or something that could achieve this for the D3

It is a 1.6 CR TDI. Have to say we are very impressed with it - got a reasonable amount of poke and sips diesel. Still prefer the D3 (regardless of its drinking habits!) but the two extremes of size and fuel economy work well for us.MY11 Disco 4 SDV6 HSE
