My v8 disco does about 25/30k mikes a year. I am getting 30+ miles to a gallon with it sat on the motorway. Not sure the diesels are much better than that?

30mpg after remap on V8 sounds exaggerated. I can see 24mpg to 26 here an there.

I'm on new ATRs. It's cold here, with snow. But even without we're only getting 15-18 MPG on around town mileage. On long runs it's better. Note that these figures are off the computer rather than brim to brim. Apparently it's too difficult for my wife to keep the fuel receipts AND write down the mileage when filling up. I get one, or the other. Never both.
EDIT: That's US gallons, not proper British MPG.PAGODA

So allowing for the lieometer and us gallons being smaller its probably 15-18mpg in imperial, about normal.==================================

Hi Guys I have the Prinns LPG fitted also with the lube care runs like a dream. On a full tank of LPG which is 80 usable litres I covered 284 miles. 200 were motorway mixed driving between 50 mph and 80mph (dash said 23.4 mpg) and the rest were local round town which averages out at about 16/17mpg overall which I thought was great
So now wondering if remapping would make a big difference. Need to find someone local in south YorkshireD3 V8 SE LPG

Thanks guys i know a supercharged is not as good on fuel but dont think i should be that different i either have a leak or my gauge is wrong as the lie-o-meter was telling me that i was doing around 20 mpg so something not telling me the truth each time i have filled it i am only able to get in 35-40 litres of gas which i think may be where my issue starts Discovery 3 se gone

About the right mileage for the amount of fuel, so perhaps you just have a small tank. What type is it?==================================

Got me thinking about the size of my tank now... I usually get c250-270 from a tank of gas. Will have to check the paperwork when I get home Disco 3 V8 with added LPG
