Our Kia Sedona (2.9 Turbo Diesel) gives us about 30 mpg - though it REALLY depends on how I drive it.

As it's an auto, it wants to drive everywhere in 3rd gear (messing up my mpg) but if I get it up to speed and back my foot off, I can get it to return 35-ish mpg.

Not bad methinks.

I'm a bit surprised at the LPG quote.....

As for the photo of the Mundane-o......

Ahhhh there you are joby, not seen you around for awhile. Have they let you out early on parole ;O)
Hi L B ,havent had to much time to look on the forum ,but i did manage a week at Lucksall where i caught a Barbel of 13LB ,then we took the caravan to Vilanova just below Barcelona in Spain ,where us old codgers get a discount if u stay longer than a month , i did use the laptop down there but it was very hit and miss on the internet ,we towed with the Nissan Terrano down to spain because you can hit some dodgy weather going through France ,and we did hit some snow going down with temperatures of minus 7 ,but once we got in Vilanova although hot you could walk around in your T shirt ,anyway Happy new to every one

My Citroen Picasso would do 999mpg down a local hill

Any better and the tank would have overflowed

Strangely that translated to 44mpg when using the tank full every fill method

Surely the original pic is showing 950rpm

My 2 year old Kia Sedona 2.9 D auto has delivered 42 mpg a number of times on a run and I think I could get more if I tried harder, this was driving at 60 -65 using Cruise control. The calculations were done using tank full to tank full over 250 miles. ( no electronics to do it for me)

Not sure what it does towing my 1700KG van, I don
