My S60 D5 (163) shows an average of around 54mpg combined on the computer. Even if it were 10mpg too optimistic, I'd be looking at 44mpg and I absolutely rev the guts off it all the time.
My V70 D5 163 shows pretty much 50mpg driving steady and a calculated tank to fill of 44mpg. That said it has been "cleaned out" since then but was driven steadily.
650 miles per tank roughly.

That is interesting! Maybe I could look at older models I keep knocking back due to the old clocks.
We have a V70 D5 on a 51 plate local for cheap money.... wonder if its worth a punt?
Those figures are exactly what I'm after.
The mrs has suggested I go & get finance on a vw van & we can fulfil our dream of a camper van but with work & my young family I don't know when I would find the time to convert it.

There are certainly plenty of pre facelift bargains. I had a pre facelift 02 plate and it was great mate.
Not all dims fail just some. If its cheap enough even if it did a second hand unit and reprogram won't cost the earth.

When I get chance to car hunt tonight when the family are asleep I will take more notice of them, I have been blanking them for fear of another big bill. lol
Hopefully I will find something.

Tell a lie, it was 550. I think i worked it out that it had another 50-100miles left in it.

Well the local car has sold but to be honest it looked a bit "worn".
Not all is lost, I've found an 02 v70 with a tasty spec list that should be in my price range once my wheels & interior gets picked up on Friday.
I'm praying it doesn't sell as it looks a clean one.
Here's hoping!!
From what you have all said about the p2's you have convinced me it's what I want.
A p1 2.5tdi v70 in red on autotrader had me thinking of a fakeR Derv but I just can't do it to myself.
