Another quick question. Can anyone give me an idea of fuel consumption for the GQ 2.8ltr turbo diesel?
Thanks

Thanks again Goodsy.
I was told around 15/100 but the person who told me this was only guessing. Yours sounds even better!
Great news to me.

Kaz,
Goodsy is on the money, the best i have had is just under 11l/100 k's, thats with big tyres, 2.5" system. If you drive 120+kph you can except quite a bit higher fuel consumption, maybe 14-15ltrs. I've managed around 750- 800 klms per tank in ideal conditions. (thats not going below the E, i think there is another 20 litres past the E mark).

Thanks for all the responses guys.
Picked the car up today and it was showing nearly empty when I filled it but it took only 74ltrs so if the 20 ltrs Andrew quotes is right it makes it a 95ltr tank.
Once again, thanks everyone
