Yeh that range is just a load of BS I reckon just like the advertised Mpg u meant to get around town and motorways even. Don’t think they use real life conditions when doing their testing to get them figures!I recently did a 25 mile journey. When I left home I had about 100 miles of diesel available. When I got to my destination I was down to 30. Admittedly I was touching 80mph in places. I marshal at rallies and was running a bit late to get the (free) breakfast before the briefing.

Of course you can't really rely on those gauges. I had a Ford Fiesta 1.25 about 3 years ago. The only place I could get MOT was 50 miles away. On the way home. About a mile from the MOT centre, the fuel gauge was on bottom of the red. And the digital readout was showing 0 miles left. About an hour later I was home and the car was still going. But as most of the journey was on the M1 I was praying the car would keep going.
Interestingly I discovered that the OBDeleven app has an output test (I think it's in the dashboard module) that shows exactly how many litres are in the fuel tank.
