Tax will be £65 per 6 months - £110 per year I think...

Can get probs 400 miles out of a tank driving like a staint... 350 more realistic...

Tax depends on the year. If it is an extremely early one i.e. X or Y, then it'll be the £65/£110.

I get that too.

Although it doesn't matter how economically you drive you can never get more than 375 miles to a tank, I've tried many times

And no matter how hard you drive it never less than 300

And me! I was so proud

.

Long distance on good A roads (40-60) is the only way i can do it. Motorway driving drinks fuel

.

Back on topic, as mentioned it depends on the year it was registered, as the grading changed from engine size to CO2 emmisions during the years it was made

I was hoping they would do well over 400 as my 1.6 sport does 300.

Are the fuel tanks the same size on the B and C? I know the corsa B is 46 litre.

Is that some kind of attempt at a joke or are ya being serious?

I only pay £260 Fully comp on my sport, £2.5k is a little excessive!
