Yes , it will vary from  car to car and driver to driver….  do prefer a turbo diesel over a straight diesel because I live in a hilly area and straight diesel tend to run out of steam up hill very quick .

Hi,

50-58mpg for me with a '79 1500 diesel. I could probably make 60mpg on a run, and now I've got a 5-speed box fitted, so that may help.
