Best I've got is 45mpg, usual is around 40mpg. 1.8 TDDi 75ps Connect remapped to around 95ps carrying near enough full load. Mixture of roads, and not driven particularly carefully lol

30mpg is ok i suppose for a heavy van with all your kit in/on it.

and that calculator is pretty accurate, it said i get 18.18mpg in my car, and it said between 18-19mpg on the trip computer in the car.

its near 2tonnes gross weight i thing plus the ladder wont be helping, think it seems bad as my astra van 1.7dti that was pushing nearly double standard bhp still did over 45mpg with a lead foot, hoping someone has something similar size to mine tho ie vito or swb transit as i have been looking at getting one and the mpg may swing it for me

About 20mpg in the LDV Pilot! Thats alot of stop/start driving. The Transit connect at work runs on fresh air i think! Hardly ever fill it up!
