Default Forrester mpg

Does anyone know what mpg you get from these.

I am a more than a little bit suspicious of the stated sales figures given that my Scoob should be in the 30s!

which version ?

I find I get anything from mid-teens to just over 30 depending on the application of my lead foot. Cruising at 80 is considerably more efficient than 90 due to the 'bread bin' aerodynamics ....

I tow a caravan with my Scoob and was thinking of changing to a Forrester to get better mpg.

Won't bother then!
