Our 06 CRD is only 9000 klm old and gets about 10.5 - 11 lit/100 km with 245/75 R16's and 2 in lift. [edit] Forgot to add that we also have an ARB bullbar adding significant weight to the car...

We were getting about 10 lit/100 km before the mods

Will probably powerchip it in the not too distant future
