Must admit since having my GT TDi(110) I've loved the economy.  I mix between motorway and town driving on a daily basis and I always get 500+ miles before i fill up, and I don't get a warning light on at that point.  Does anyone know how much is left when light comes on for fuel?

When I came back from Scotland with the car it averaged 62.1 MPG.  I was soooooo pleased!

not sure - i reckon about 4-5 litres  :undecided: good enough for at least another 40miles  :smiley:

mine came on at around 570 (PD TDI 130) and i stuck in around 51 litres.

averaged 53mpg to Le Mans and back  :smiley: that was with 3 people, bootful of camping equipment and i wasn't going slow.......  :wink:
