X5Sport is on a distinguished road
Model: 3.0D Sport 6sp Auto
Year: 2005
Engine Size: 2993/218bhp
Cost Per Tank: £83-00 depending upon fuel cost Updated for 2008: £110 - diesel fuel is now £1.20/litre
Miles Miles Per Tank: 530 - 630
Current Mileage: 25,300
Type of Driving: Various - long runs on motorway 100+ miles, plus local stuff. I'm a reasonably gentle driver but 'use' it when I can.

Typical MPG averaged over 3,000 mile intervals is 30 (+/- 1mpg). Did get 37mpg once going to Manchester (170 miles all dual carriageway/motorway). This is Imperial Gallons, not US Gals.

First Service was at 21k (18 months). Currently got one green flag just gone out at 25k.

For comparison purposes our 2005 E46 330Cd (2993/204bhp) 6sp Manual M Sport Convertible gets about 45mpg on motorway, 35mpg around town. First service at 18K. She drives it like she stole it. How she hasn't got points or a fine for speeding I will never know - or maybe I don't want to know!!
