N/A or turbo?
I have gotten as low as 9.xL/100km, but my average is about 12L/100km.
Oh yeah, a quick tip about multiple posts - don't do it. If you have two questions that are more-or-less the same, put them in the same thread. It makes it easier for everyone to read and reply to, plus it doesn't make you come accross as a time waster.

when asking people their fuel figures, also ask them how they work them out, and what conditions they were driving in.. sometimes I think people are in neutral rolling most way down Mt Everest isnt exactly giving accurate figures.

round town i get 16.5l per 100km and open road 12.5l per 100km out of my TD42, worked out using my odo which is set accurately for my 33 inch tyres. I'm running 33inch tyres, 3inch lift and snorkel, no exhaust work yet and no turbo.

Lol thats funny cant believe people actually do it doesnt save much fuel and ends up wearing brakes down more so probally end up spening more money
