Those of you with Discovery 1's, what kind of fuel economy do you get? Has it gotten better, worse, or stayed the same?

Worst is 15, best I have gotten is 20 mpg. But that was before I added all the extra weight. (bumper - RTE Nerf bars - Steel wheels and larger tires.)

1.3 litres per 10 kilometers at 110-120 km/h. That translates to 18 miles per gallon going at 68-74 mph. That's running on 98 octane fuel. Still don't know how it performes on 95 or 99. This is the 3.5 litre V8 engine in a Disco 1 with 142922 miles on the meter.

If I'm lucky about 18mpg on my 3.9I manual, though when running LPG it's financially equivalent to low 30s mpg.
