just back from a trip to Normandy, and made a thorough check on consumption on my 2007 v8 vogue

Keeping thre right foot to average 68.9 gave a return of 32.4 mpg
Keeping the right foot to 75.9, gave a return of 28.4 mpg
very pleased with the results, as diesel cost me 1.41€ per ltr

Moral, have the right foot doctored !!!!!!!!!!

no excuses now, you want it ??? go get it. there are some superb bargains out there now

I've decided to keep mine for the time being, there's nothing wrong with it, the Dealership swapped my driveshafts so I'm unlikely to have the dreaded Diff explosion, the MOT, Tax and Brakes have all just been done so there's no real reason to spend the cash. I'm not going to lose much more in depreciation between 66k and 90K. It's a fully loaded facelift version with all the toys and I actually think the seats are better than the newer model. I love it.

I sat in a Vogue SE yesterday with air cooled seats and was not impressed, the seats felt very hard, I guessed due to the air colling stuff underneath. Can't say I'd want that on my next one. Plus it felt weird, like I'd just wet myself! Discovery 4 HSE

I can safely say we WILL be going for a/c seats next time round!
