United Kingdom 2007 Discovery 3 TDV6 XS Manual Zermatt SilverDiscovery 3
Consumption

Last week the car did about 200mpg. Very Happy That was based on about 100 miles in return for four bottles of red wine from various neighbours helped out.

This week, no white stuff (well, hardly any) so no free red wine. Big Cry

Is this normal?

No, not normal.
I haven't bought a single bottle of red stuff for about 5 years and do drink it regularly.
If measured by free bottles of wine, even my V8 is running cheap.

You better have it checked out.

four bottles per 100 miles (so one per 25 miles) seems very low. You ought to be consuming one bottle at least every 10-15 miles - lightweight Bow down

So you get infinite miles from your two bottles... that's good. I have a 3l bottle of Bacardi, same story.
