Should I have waited until I found a cheaper petrol station?

It cost me £72 the last time I coasted into the service station on fumes. :whistle:

i just fill it when the light comes on and repeat. :woo2:

i think one of the best was brimming a Discovery TD on some scottish outer isle for about £145, it was like the numbers would never stop :lol:

Always thought that the TF had a large tank meself: 50 litres, just shy of 11 of Her Majesty's gallons.
Also, I've never ever seen a tank of such strange shape. If you take a corner in a spirited fashion you can gain/lose an eighth of a tank on the gauge.

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..

I called in my local garage, and had to pay cash. Never put £50 in ever, normally 30/40 so yes its gone up regardless of what the owner told me. Also having to pay cash, means he will not pay his merchant fees on the card payment. I'm not going back to be honest, and I'll buy my fuel elsewhere, its another business taking advantage of not just me, but his Bank too.

MY 159 has a 70 litre tank and only does 18mpg - scary stuff at the pump!
