Nearly ran the tank dry last night - the needle was between the needle stop and the bottom of the orange blocks by the time I got off the motorway and to a petrol station.

Does anyone know what the true capacity is (2.0L engine) - I put 47.12 litres in?

Or how many miles you have got left once the ligt comes on ( I managed 30 last night)?

Whatever it is, it isn't enough.
45 litre tanks are supposed to be for small, economical cars (>40mpg) not 1250kg, 2 litre gas guzzlers :(

yeh but the manual says 47litres - I can't believe I was that lucky/close to it being dry.

Presumably there is some slack in the figure of 47 that they give
