kevin lancelott Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool-S Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 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.

iNath Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PumpkinSteve Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Forgot to mention diesel was £1.38 from Esso garage. 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 :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
