Yea I reckon that's about right....

I have a facelift model 98 S 1.9TD. Usually lob £30 in it from near empty and it never fills the tank, usually get over 400 miles to that. But as Andy mentions have been getting on for 500 odd when full.

I haven't filled my tank upto the brim before but if I take my time in mine I have had 240 - odd miles to 20 quid. That's combined driving ie going to and from work which means cutting through Newcastle town centre in rush hour so I think that's good going.

I've read a lot about the injectors letting the side down mate and on some forums they say to replace them every 2 years so it might be worth a think about???
