..... Not wanting the fuel costs of a V6 (I know this is arguable) and  ......

I've just returned from France with our Lunar Delta 520/2 caravan on the back of my 3.0 V6
In total I did 1550 miles and used 81.2 gallons  :o  :o  :o  :o  :o

I make that 18mpg!

Trip computers says 19.1 mpg so I must've got the total milage wrong  ::) Still not bad though considering  ;)

I clocked about 22MPG with the 2.2 towing Swift Corniche 19/4. Quite impressive when considering I was holding up HGVs in the crawler lane.  ;D

I suppose I should have got a 3.2 to be fair but once I'd spent so much time & money on the 2.2 it was too late.

my calculator says 19.08 mpg so your trip is on the money,how much of that mileage was solo?

Most was with the caravan, I'd say possibly a couple of hundred solo.  :y
