The dealer demonstrator I drove yesterday was a Takumi spec car which, now I’ve investigated further, I realise has the adaptive damper system. The ride quality was sublime but I’m looking at a base model with the standard set up. Anyone know whether there’s much difference between the two?

Many thanks for the replies. Real world fuel consumption of 30-34 mpg looks realistic and tallies with what the fuelly.com website is saying. Much more like it.

I drove my local dealer’s 70 reg RX today and thought it was sublime for the features and benefits I’m looking for but, at the end of a 30 min reasonably sedate drive I was stunned to see the mpg readout for the journey being 23.1 mpg. I realise a big, heavy SUV isn’t going to be the most economical of cars but assumed 30-35 on average was a realistic expectation. I’d be interested to hear from existing owners what they’re achieving from theirs. Many thanks Richard
