For the record I have never re-set the ltrs/100km since i received the car on the 2nd of December (S4 my18 Ti) so the reading is 100% accuarte. Just completed Sydney to Mildura, Mildura to Adelaide, Adelaide to Melbourne, and Melbourne back to Sydney.
In that was a 2 day trip to the Barossa, 1 day trip to vic harbour, Dandenong ranges and much much more.
Did over 3000kms worth of city driving in total and the rest was highway kms.
We would have weighed 3200kg-3300kgs or there abouts.......i thought they we're thirsty??? 13.1ltrs/100kms is amazing for so much power and weight.
The best parts however are;
1) saving more than $20k compared to the equivalent Toyota land cruiser
2) blasting past any land cruiser that was ahead of me. I actually had a moron in a worked 79 series try his best not to let me overtake him but he was left in the big patrols wake..
3) the luxury and comfort we travlled in was first class. Mrs loved the comfort compared to our 110 defender.
This is without doubt the best touring vehicle ive ever owned.
As for serious offroad; its still standard for now so i cant comment.....and to shiny. However i know it will never be anywhere near as good as my 110 defender which is a built for purpose beast.
