I am with Rossy on this- computer MPG are MASSIVELY out all the time even if 'Set-up'. Things like speedo accuracy (normally +10%) will affect it
When I had a SG I set it up and even after that it was always wrong. I was apparently averaging 35-40mpg where realistically I was getting 24-28. I now use a iPod app that calculates it all from physical fuel and distance.
Good to see they are more fuel efficitnt though

i avg 1mpg better than the SG give me on its current set up from actual figures.
i agree that vehicle computers can be out, so lets assume it is 10% then, 46mpg it is.......

according to a few papers, the RR hybrid is returning 40mpg on the silk trail expedition, so over faily slow rough terrain - not bad!
lets face it the hybrid will only matter around town, and when you pay your road tax
