Hi, I am running Cooper STT on 35x12.50 and I have a 2 door Sahara (3.73) auto CRD.
My average consumption goes from 7.2-7.4 km/lt (13.9-13.5 l/100km) to peaks of 8-8.5km/lt, depending on usage (offroad-city to highway). Mostly in the 7.6-7.8 range. I usually have a light foot.
Alas, I rarely get above 500km with one full tank, so if you plan long journeys take range in consideration. I want to add a 2nd fuel tank sometime.

Wow sommelier that is quite an increase from standard ... do you have the new EU5 engine with 200hp (original ones ) or the earlier EU4 powerplant with 177? Did you chipped the original ECU or went with a piggy-back module?

I buyed the car modified and there is no chip or powerbox used, so it should be the original ECU. The engine is the one with 177HP. The exhaust it is also modified. Here you have the website for soft tunning: http://www.arbtuning.eu/chiptuning.php
