2.3 diesel MPG figures please...

Postby cavmad on Thu Dec 27, 2007 5:20 pm

...could really do with a diseasel now for various reasons and a Frontera makes perfect sense. What mpg can I expect out of the 2.3 please? Thanks, regards and season's greetings.

Hiya cavmad - well both of ours have done mid 20's round town and nudging 33 on a run, not good - but for the size and age of the engine not too bad,

Cheers Di. Noticed your old one on eBay recently, thought I recognised the area in the pictures :lol:
Mid twenties isn't that tempting tbh, the Sport will do that anyhow and petrol is cheaper than diseasel round here.
However... do you happen to know what fuel pump is fitted to the 2.3 please? If it's a Bosch then I could be seriously tempted for vege oil reasons!
Thanks and regards.

I doubt if I've still got it tbh but will have a look and see if I can find it. Good news on the bio front then, can get a fair amount free I think!
