Hi Everyone, just as an update, i am now the proud owner of a '96 Terrano II SE 2.7TD LWB !!! I picked it up on Friday and i love it!!!

I purchased something off of Ebay at the weekend and decided to collect it using the Terrano. I filled up before i left and done about 200 miles as a round trip using approx half a tank of fuel. When i worked out the MPG i was getting a figure of 36.69 per gallon, Does that sound about right?? seems good to me for vehicle like that.

Anyway, i well pleased regardless and i look forward to talking to all of you and maybe meeting or so.

Regards

Scubadude

Yep on a run I now get about 35mpg

it has had a major service with a new fuel pump and all new fuel pipes all new jets so I think that has helped

There good arn't they

Have you been off road yet?

floyd500b · 27-01-2009, 21:30

'course my truck weighs in at the thick end of 3 ton. i only get 32-33mpg

daveg · 27-01-2009, 22:07

yeah about 32-35 is a good estimate for deisel and a 2-3 mpg less for the petrol. look after it and it will serve you well.

No i haven't been off-road yet but i'm planning to. Mainly purchased to tow a caravan but if you've got the tools, why not use them!!! Perhaps if anyone knows of any meetings near Cambridge i would certainly be interested
