OK I caved in .. sun was out and commuter mode went out the window a bit.
But anyway the fuel low warning light came on at 262 miles somewhere outside Chepstow on the m4 and I've just parked up with 290 miles on the clock.
I've got the 03 foxeye version and I was able to squeeze just over 20 litres into the tank at the last (and my first ever) fill up - I filled up maybe 5 miles after the fuel light had come on.
So that's approx 20 litres to cover 255 miles = 255/20 * 4.546 = approx 58 mpg
I can't imagine I will ever get this kind of range again
