I've probably done 85% of my 127k miles on CC at 60mpg. I agree probably not the most economical but it means you don't start going up & down in speed, plus it's a lot more relaxing.

Bet you haven't.
It is not as economical because it puts the gearbox in a different mode. Current: Discovery 3 06MY (55 reg) HSE Auto Zambezi Silver Allisport Fast Road Intercooler, V8 Brakes, Silicone IC Hoses, EGRs Blanked, Remapped, De-Cat pipe, FBHIC
