Check the pressures, they may be too low.
I'd expect better mpg from new ATR's than from knackered Zero's. Long succession of Disco's since 2001...

I average 29.6 which is 50% town and 50% open road based on 26 miles a day in auto with the SDV6. If I switch to manual figure increases. On my old FL2 worst was 8mpg at Tong up best 48.8mpg from Bedford to Leeds and back doing a similar driving style to Clarkson when he did London to Edinburgh and back on a tank!!
