When i couldn't find a garage the other night the miles to empty said 0 by the time i did it took 51.6 litres to fill so i would guess its 50 litres with a reserve.

Just back from a cross country 550 mile round trip.Averaged 29.5mpg doing fairly sustained 'press-on' driving so to be honest it's just like any other two litre turbo petrol car i've owned.I should have learned to take these 'average 38mpg' claims with a huge pinch of salt!I think these days it's a toss up between an interesting diesel(Audi A5,Alpina D3,123d Coupe etc.) or just saying sod it and not looking too closely at your average mpg in a petrol car!

I had a puncture in mine midweek in Le Touquet - northern France. decided to drive home to Brighton on the get-you-home thing in the boot! I set the speed warning in the MFD at 50 (can you believe) - I got over 50mpg out of it on the M20, 26, 25, 23...

BEAT THAT ANYONE!! (mind you the most boring 3 hours of my life!!)
