Looks like my car is finally run in. Consistently getting 11.9L per 100ks and happy with that.
This is a mixture of highway/city/hills and I've got these figures over the last 3000ks plus. I've also been pushing the car a little harder than usual so surprised by these figures.
Trips have been a mixture of cruise and less OD than usual, includes quite a bit of Melb city, lots of Otway hills and country roads. No 4WD involved (unfortunately).
I have noticed this, the old GU2 would do 1000 to 1100 km on the 120l.
The new GU8 has only been getting around 900 to 950, might still be loosening up.
I haven't done a full tank run for a while without a trailer/boat/car on the back at some time.
Also noticed that the GU8 struggles at 70 in 4th towing the boat up the hill from Hillarys marina, the old GU2 easily accelerated up the same hill, although the GU8 appears to be geared a little higher.

Ok.. have you put yours on any scales yet??
Mine came in at 2.75T with only 60L of fuel in it..
The draws, braces, winch bar and diff mods all add up..
