    I don’t expect a full tank – the cost of fuel combined with the relatively low amount a dealer makes on a motability sale combine to make it reasonable in my opinion, but there’s no excuse for not having enough in it to get 2 miles to a petrol station. The car is advertised as getting 43 mpg in city driving, to fail to do 2 miles, mathematically it needs less than about 200ml of Diesel in it. At today’s prices that’s about 25/30p – if it hasn’t got that…
