I've only got 215/75/15s on..... 22mpg from a 1300 is pretty shocking!

Only ran the 1.3 on muds and got 200miles so can't really compare. Wouldn't want to run a 1.3 with the setup as it would be to sluggish. Barley enough with a G16.

Over the last 2000 miles from new, in a bog standard automatic Jimny, I've been averaging 280 miles per tank = 32 mpg. So far only used on road but includes some steep hills and (as far as is possible!) some spirited driving.

2013 manual normal driving I get 300 to a tank. No motorway work as there aren't any here in Norfolk! Oh, and that's with a roofrack fitted too.
