How much to brim it?

110 for the R.....

That sounds a lot. How much are you paying a litre over there?

I try not to fill mine 'all in one go' it would scare me too much

That's definitely a way to do it, if the half / 3/4 tank is what it takes to equal my current car I would do the same unless we were travelling and wanted it full to cover ourselves.

Always nice to have an idea of what your getting into though .

Over the first 6 months of the year I'm getting 28.5 mpg.....that's all I need to know.

Again that doesn't sound too terrible or as bad as thought would be. Mine at present where driving a mix of town and country and M roads is about 28 but haven't had it mapped for best results as it stands so again won't hurt too much either.

Book max is 73litres. I've managed almost that up the neck of the tank.

73x140p = £102.00

I'm paying 1.41 PL nitro plus, usually costs between 70-90 depending where the needle is, i try not to let it get too low as its not nice standing at the pump for a good 5 mins filling up..

I've got a 2.5T v70 AWD and i've had a few people see the volvo badge as M-R-P says and they try get past, they dont seem to be very pleased when I start pulling away around the corners and straights, always a good giggle waving good bye to some Jap Cr*p

£1.409/litre at the moment over here. Both my cars say they have less in on the gauge than what's in really, but that's the best way to be. I just got 450miles out of my C70 T5, before the light came on, but cleaning the JR filter deffo makes a difference.

I never fill mine, the weight lugging all that fuel around would kill the mpg as proved when I put fuel additive in when I first had it.
Secondly, I'm spending good money getting my R awd working again so it handles a bit better, filling it up so I have a massive tank slapper is not my idea of fun! Mine has £30-40 a week with the mileage I do. I'm really surprised how good it is on fuel when you drive like a saint.

My little v50 only takes about 50 litre s when the light comes on 60 l tank so around £65-80 a fill up! Still normally get around 300 plus miles per tank too!

[LiamT4]

My car has a similar sized tank to my old s70r, so around 73l, but as its N/A i don't have to put super in it, so i save a bit there lol

Also, i managed 120miles today on 1/4 of a tank, so thats a theoretical range of 480miles......no too bad for a 4.4.

I'd do the same as you if I wasn't doing so many miles. I still fill up every other day when I'm out during the week, so to only put half a tank in or so, I would be going to the petrol station everyday.

[JamesT5]

Before my fuel sender started to play up, I was putting in about £75 to fill it up (on my P2), but since then I've never put more than around £60 in because my fuel gauge doesn't work properly. £90 - £95 for a fill-up seems a lot though, it shows how much more I have in my tank than I realise.

[weagie]

Way too scared to even think about it lol. 30 squid is my usual amount.
