The only time I have ran out of petrol was in the Clio when the clocks had fucked up and not shown the the true petrol level. I ran out about 40 ft from a petrol station but was at the top of a hill (I was fucked pushing it with some random passer by ). Fault #13123 with the Clio and another excuse never to buy French shit again...

Mine does about 40 miles on the red, and still leaves me with enough to make it to the local petrol station.
