So with 4 in the car + bags and beer Birmingham to Nürnbergring about 600 miles each way at 70/80 mph
What mpg do you think I would get in a 2005 2.7 D
trip booked for early may

I did North West to Southhampton and back,fully loaded like you and got 33mpg.

Driving steady at the min and getting 26 mpg on a 16 mile run in lanes to work max 50 mph
Just started using 2stroke oil in my fuel so hope it gets better

In winter I did a 3000 mile trip from uk through to Ukraine and back.

5 in car plus luggage and in temps of -5 on average we took it steady at no more than 60mph where possible and got 35mpg.

I would expect similar figures come the warmer weather and a change of tyres from winter ones.

Ours is also a 2.7 2006 model.

Hope this helps you Current - RRS SE Rimini Red

Nurnburgring? Best check the spelling or your sat nav will take you 300 miles south of Nurburgring.
My V8 did 26 mpg towing a big car trailer with 996 cup car on back to Spa 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!

Cruising daily #56 mph in a Volvo V8. 😱
Lots of other toys in the cupboard...😜

This will be my forth time there sat nav is set for adenau
I have done spa to what a track

Not going to count how many laps have done at Ring, am sure in excess if 150. Have done Spa twice a year since 2001 in various cars and its the best track in Europe. Have done many others in Europe and apart from Monza the others are tame.
Have a good time, we are at Spa 20/21 may so will slide over to the ring to sit and watch the day before.  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Nurburgring 20 laps 9.08

996 turbo with added Manthay. 605 bhp and doing sub 8 minutes at ring and 2mins 55 round Spa. Have to say Ring lost its appeal long ago especially after doing loads of Audi driving experience demos in my non track going quattro. More fun in RS4 as no one ever expects to get overtaken by an estate car at speed.
Funny, was at Spa last year and there was zero hero in a TVR who thought drifting was way to go round. Wasn't you by chance, even the enduro 24 hr 2CV's were overtaking it  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
