Yeah the corsa c has two stages on the petrol light. It comes on red when you got about 10 litres left, then it flash's when virtually empty | |

My car is crap on petrol so i was wondering what the actual mpg is as its suppose to be 45mpg (combined) so i put in a tenner went for a nice long drive with the misses with out booting it and managed 110 miles. |
