Although its been a long while since the last post and the diesel is no longer an engine option in Australia, my diesel GD is killing it fuel consumption wise which is an awesome thing to report in these days of ridiculous fuel prices.
For the record better than 6.5l/100km fully loaded with a bike on the roof and a trike on the back over a couple of hundred km driven mostly at highway speeds. I've seen 4.5 without bikes on the roof at times. No hyper mileing, just reliable real world motoring.
I recall there were some who claimed way back when zillions of km needed to be driven to make the diesel a good economic decision and here we are. Car has just under 60 000km driven after all these years and runs like a top.
