i heard today that ax's have a 10 litre reserve... that's why i'm asking...

i thought it was like you said 45/5 (45 total)

if ax's have a 10 litre reserve they would always be on reserve!!!! the tank of the ax is not bigger than the saxo, I think its actualy about the same.

Mine is a bit smaller though its 41 but still 5 litre reserve

the guy said that his fuel consumption on a 1.1 ax is around 5 litres (that's 5 litres to cross 100 km's, or 5L/100km), and that he crosses almost 1000 km's with a single tank!! i guess his full of sh*t

well, he's definitely full of sh*t...

i can do around 600 km's with a full tank, and i think that's good...

thats 621 miles on a full tank!!! i seem to remember scott getting a few hundred miles on his tank up to fcs last year.

but all saxo's have the same size fuel tank, which is 45 litres (9.9 gallons).

yup - 45 litres, 5 litres from when ya light comes on.
i get anything between 250 & 300 to a tank depending how low i let it get & how much town driving i do.
