Along the years we have seen a lot of diesel conversions, many done to improve the fuel consumption of a G that came out of the Graz factory as a gasoline powered vehicle.
Prompted by this thread on the Southafrican forum about the consumption of the G300 prof.

I thought we might assemble the real-life MPG of a diesel G, so there is a base reference of what you can expect. There is benefits to diesel power - but there is also limits to what they can achieve.
Please list the relevant data of your vehicle.
LWB or SWB
Engine type and displacement.
Gearbox style, auto or manual with overdrive or straight 1:1
Average consumption on the open road.
Please state if the measurement is US gallon, UK gallon or metric. I’ll be happy to convert the measurements so we all speak the same language.
