Scotland 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Santorini Black

17.4 is a bit better than the 13.9 we averaged towing 2200kgs over 1800 miles to France and back, we were moving along all the time though.

Might be time to start looking for a TDV8.

Nah Hoppy you just have to watch out for the tw@ts trying to cut you up, had a bit of that on the way down to be honest Embarassed hence the 17.4mpg southbound.

For you to manage 17mpg solo you must be trying real hard wee fella. Laughing (There aint many who could describe Hoppy that way, but I think I just win by a few cm???



Haha, I'm tall, but you fit closely to the 'freak of nature' bracket. I'm suprised you can stand up in that caravan, even if it is the size of an artic! Laughing Laughing My Previous RR's!

Freak of nature yep sounds about right Hoppy, still cannot complain the bathroom scales read just over two stones so I am a lightweight Laughing
If I have my shoes on I hit everything in the roof, so its shoes off and slight head tilt to clear the air con in the roof (when I remember that is, have the scars to prove it Confused Twisted Evil )

I'm loving those pictures showing the RR next to the big trucks for size comparison Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Really after a van now as a few friends have them and it'd be rude not to use the RR to its full towing potential. TDV8 HST Sport **Current**
