OK I filled up with fuel on sunday (how cheap by the way compared to diesel!) and it said "range 439 miles". I've done over 50 miles since then but the range has only dropped by 14 miles ............ how does it work?!?

Technical "range" question
I think it works out your fuel level, and MPG, and sort of calculates the number of miles you can get with the number of gallons in the tank, so if your driving style is very varied (EG hammering it one day and sunday driver the next) then it's won't give the best results/information, and is really only a guide

Honestly the range meter aint the best at the start, but after 100 or so miles it sorts itself out. but basically depending on ur driving style you should expect to see 250+ miles to a tank of fuel (no aircon)
Best i have done so far is 310, but im averaging 265 at the mo ( short town journeys )
Whoops the **** out of my 100hp when i had it.

Thanks for the range info - it looks like me thinking i'm going to get 439 miles out of a tank then is out of the question. Altho if I do high MPG then hopefully I'll get good mileage ... I am averaging 55mpg already after only a few days

Think that sort of range could be possible out of the diesel but not the 1.2 petrol (I could be wrong though).

Thats only about 34ish miles to the gallon. shouldn't it be better than that?
My MTD shows range at 500 miles when full, I would need to be doing about 72 mpg to make that happen, but tend to run around the 64 mpg mark, giving over 400 miles before needing to refill.

My 500 only gives me 421 miles but not even that goes down really quick.
