Economy on The 98 > 2.2 Petrol and 2.2 Desiel

[Reeco]

Hi All, Can I have the MPG from the owners of the above vehicles, I am considering buying a newer version of the Fronty but wanted to know is it worth say paying the extra £ 500 on a desiel vehicle.I am also now considering buying a Pajero as I saw a K reg Pajero a couple of days ago, it was immaculate and you would never have thought it was K reg.

Owner of a 95' 2.2 petrol. I had a VX reconditioned engine fitted 2 years ago and rarely get less then 400 miles to a full tank unless Im doing a lot of stop/start city driving. So averaging between 23 and 27 MPG. I just replaced the Lambda sensor though and Im expecting to see a little more on top of that. Cant speak for the diesels though.

Cheers for that Mate. ATB. Reeco

My '98 2.2 petrol LWB does about same as sir doris's so apears to be the norm @ 100 miles to £20

Yes, it absolutely is.
I have the 2.2 Dti and the wife has the 2.2 petrol.
The diesel is way more economical than the petrol version (38-40 mpg v 25mpg)
You'll recover the extra cost in no time..

Less weight then the lwb. I still wouldnt have thought it would be nearly 10mpg more then the LWB tho.
