GU 4.5ltr fuel consumption?

Post by ROCKMUTT »

Has anyone with a GU 4.5lt manual got any figures on fuel economy ?

and what are they like performance wise?

also how do they compare fuel and performance wise to a TD42 non turbo?

i have a 4.5L wagon

i get about 560km out of 85L of fuel when highway driving,
and about 480-500 when city driving

but patrols and fuel economy shouldnt be used in the same sentence.
