I brimmed my tank tonight.1.6 TDCI.The pump clicked off at £50.70p 36.50 litres.The tank holds 45 litres so I had 9.5 left and the computer said 10 miles left till empty so not far out.So to fill a fiestas 45 tank from empty would be just over £60.OUCH. :o

Forgot to mention diesel was £1.38 from Esso garage.

I thought the diesel tank was only 40 liter.

Ide hate to have to fill any other car then, the 1.6tdci for me, is a very economical engine.

Ive never filled the tank, infact i think the most ive ever put in is £15 usually getting me around 120 miles from near enough empty.

And me but I looked in the book.45 for both petrol and diesel 3 and 5 door.

My Ford owners book says Fuel Tank Capacity

Petrol - 42 Litres

Diesel - 40 Litres

As above - it's a 40l tank and 42l for petrol.

I filled up today - 34.96l @ 141.9p/l = £49.61 (this was for Shell V-Power diesel but there is a BP in Northampton selling normal diesel for 141.9p/l also!)

Got 450 miles which works out at 58.7mpg - well chuffed with that =D

Well that's not bad at all considering the mileage you get, petrol is almost £1.30 here...I know which one I'd choose.

EDIT: Just been to the garage, petrol is now £1.32 :(

I paid £1.38 @ Tesco last night!!

Average price near me is £1.33 for diesel but i think the engine is fine economy wise.
