Yeah but on LPG at half price of diesel it is bettering your pence/mile and bonus of being accompanied by that lovely V8 soundtrack and revving power delivery :D

That must be motorway - I get 250-300 miles from around 75 litres in my 4.4, always a mixed bag for me but very little motorway - local, town & A roads for me.
