Hello everybody,
I'm new on this club, I just sold my Land Rover Discovery II full of leaks and orange lights to buy a LC 80 series, 4.5 GX.
It's fully equipped because I'm planning to do with my future wife a trip with it from Johannesburg where I leave to Paris where I'm from between August and December. We will crosse Botswana, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt before taking the boat to Italy.
I'm taker of any advice, any recommendation, any help on mechanic issues and I hope I'm sure I'll find a nice community here.
I have a first concern: the car is very heavy on fuel (i'm getting 30l/100km in town even if I didn't use it enough yet to have a full picture). I know it's normal with this model, the rooftent etc... But do you have any recommendations to help me pushing it down?
Thanks a lot
Pierre
