always thought corsa tanks were 38 litres?

oh and some people in here will hate it when they upgrade to more powerful engined cars

If you dont rev above 2k, surely you would be better with a 1.0l? As you wont be going fast anyway.

Are 1.6 sports that bad on fuel I dread our next car when we get rid of the diesel astra (50l tank and get about 450 ish miles to it) and maybe switch to a petrol car

Probably the worst car i've owned to run, fuel wise.

Xe's are more economical.

well im my old astra (1.8 16v)
i could normally do about 70 miles to a tenner driving averagely
and on 25£ went from leeds to filey
then went to scarbrough and back to filey
then brid to filey etc and then home think i did 150 ish miles and filled up 15£ back in leeds
but imo driving on country roads at 60 everywhere (legal limit)
150 miles to 30l was very acceptable from 1.8
