20.03/1.209 = 16.57 (litres put in)

16.57/4.54 = 3.65 (Gallons put in)

3.65 x 30 (mpg) = 109.5 (miles I have just put in)

£20 to go 110 miles? WTF??

I knew it was bad but it's never as apparant until you actually do the working out yourself!

What was your last fill up peeps? Lousy Government!!

its not exactly accurate is it? you need to fil til it clicks off once, then drive, then refil til it clicks once, then you know exactly how much fuel has been used.
