I think somewhere around 400 kms on a 50 litre tank.

I know that a quarter of the tank was taken on constant driving which totaled to about 120 kms So it could be more. I've never accurately measured it.

What about you?

Maxx Sport

Nice. Dealer or auctions (it looks like a warehouse so yeah)?

And I'm guessing the maxx sport would do 7.5 L for every 100kms am I correct?

Private, actually..

Not too sure on the stats and figures just yet, but I fueled up with 98 Premium BP and lets see how that goes

Made sure it was almost empty, a full tank was about $62 with Premium

We need the litre's not the money.

That would be around 40 L going off current conversion rates?

The picture looked like an auction or dealer warehouse lol.

But usually you can get better deals on private. Its a little similar to auctions prices, but with less hassle

I believe it's a 55 liter tank

You would have only filled 40 litres though. I doubt you were getting the premium 98 for less than $1.40 a litre.

But that is a big tank for that car. It must do 600-700 litres on the full 55 litre tank.

I think it would have a 15 liter or something safety barrier where it wont show on the fuel gauge and use it as a back up for when you do run out of fuel to get to a servo

it was at 1.62 a liter IIRC

Says 38 litres upon calculation. It probably shows only 40 litres and the extra 15 litres is for what you said maybe.

Does it explicitly say 55 litres for the maxx sport in the manual though? Usually these types of manuals will have multiple cars in reference.

Check the manual just in case since that is most likely for 2014 models.

You don't want to be mislead by the concept, trying to go an extra 50 kms, but then find out its different for your car.


But any way, congrats on getting your first car!!!

I was told by one of my mac hating friends that my car suits me. "I own a terrible computer and thus I own a terrible car"

What car?

Could be good though I will tell you the pros and cons if I know them about that car.

And you have owned some really awesome cars, so obviously there is no correlation.
