It averages 15/16mpg on petrol combined driving, which drops to 12 when on LPG. So effectively on gas you get the equivilent to 25mpg.

I had as high as 18mpg on gas on a careful run, which equates to 36mpg on petrol. Not bad...

Not bad for a 4 litre V8...
Depends on whether ou're going to work in it every day & how far you're going! It p's me off putting £50 a week in my car, just to do 20 miles each way every day.

I know what your saying about going to work and back and puttin £50 a week in , but believe me or not our Rangey (well Mrs. Loo-knee's  ;) ) gets about 15-16 knockin about but the Cornwall run every year with the caravan on the back fully loaded we get 21-22mpg sticking to a steady 70.

Loo-knee :y
Everything to do with Omega's. Breaking, Servicing from Cambelts to Oil Changes... Please Pm me for details...

I get 16 to 17 average Worcester to Cornwall - best on the levels, worst over the moors with the V6 towing, but I do use the power

Yeah its a nice motor, fitted a new Radiator, Four branch manifold and stainless exhaust to it sounds nice.. thought about a k&n air filter but Mrs Loo-knee likes putting her foot down so haven't bothered yet ;D
