10-15 as an average me thinks but you don't buy them for fuel economy |

I get an average of 17l/100km (17mpg) in my 2010 TDV8. The car does two 15km (9.3 miles) trips per day with a 7-8 hour gap between them (two school runs). |

2008 TDV8 over 2 years ownership and covering a total of 28348 miles average is 25.12mpg. not much motorway, some 40 miles trips across country, and often short trips to town of 4 miles or so. (assuming my maths is OK |

It will cost you more like for like but honestly, doing that little mileage, I would ALWAYS go for the petrol variant.

The man-maths missed out the additional VED payable on the S/C over the TDv8........ not sure how much more it is but the CO2 emissions of the S/C are quite a bit more than the TDv8. For the annual miles though as stated above the petrol is always better for low miles journeys. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Good point Tim. My 2008 TDV8 of course gets clobbered with the full wack presumably you are saying that the later TDV8s do better on CO2 emissions. Robin

Having just taxed mine yesterday, I can tell you the L320 is £555 for 12 months. I pay mine monthly so it increases to £582.75 in total. Ouch... 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
