Default RE: How big is my tank?

I set off from home this morning in my D5 just as the light came on and drove 30 miles to work. I then managed to squeeze 69.5 litres in. This wasn't to the first click but a few more. I couldn't see the fuel down the neck but I'm sure it wasn't far away, I only stopped because the meter got to £60! I always fill my car virtually to the brim for the simple reason that I hate filling the thing up so try to do it as infrequently as possible. Also it never hurts to have your car full in case you need to go on a mercy dash or similar.

I've never had any trouble filling it right up, as long as you don't turn left too sharply not much spills out! (lol)
