70 litre tank

Edit after above post!: 70 litres is what some report to get in with the "lever" trick.

Pretty sure its a 66 ltr tank, but using the lever trick can get an extra 4 ltrs in

This is very subjective as some people fill up to the normal point, others finger the hole and get a little exra bit in, then some people fill up when the warning comes on whilst others do it sooner.
I only fill to the normal level and fill up before the warning comes on. I get about 190 - 210 miles to a tank so you lot must drive like miss daisy. When I fill up I normally get around 54 litres in so i get about 200 miles for 54 litres.

I'm with mikefish, I don't usually get more than 200 to a tank unless I go long distance motorway driving.
Maybe you get better fuel economy from avants as they are slower........ :assflash:

You can get more bodies in the back of an Avant though :biggrin2:

For comparison I usually get 200-310 Miles out of an 85 liter tank on my RS6 depending on how I'm driving. And I normally get 80 liters in when I fill up.
