So i though I would check mine for sure. Not towing it will do between 27 and 32.5 (my brother drove it to London 'fast' and it was 27) 65mph'ish = 32.

I had to tow my car trailer, 500kg and pick up a car, 1350kg, so 1850 return load. Obviously 55-60 with the car on but it averaged 27!! 95% motorway btw.

I just love Terrano's! They are brilliant!
 
only real mpg test is to fill to the brim, i think mine got around 32mpg on a long run when i did that
 
We brimed it a number of times, but if the speedo's are notoriously wrong, what about the mileage counter?

I am assuming the milage must also be as far out as the speedo, therefore the 'brim' MPG test is aslo inacurate, but sadly there is not much else you can do :nenau

I guess you could use a satnav unit to gauge mileage?

yep, the same with speed I tend to assume that the truth lies somewhere between the two figures as there is no way to prove your sat nav is any more accurate than your speedo. I have two tomtom's and they both vary from each other as well as th speedo :nenau
