I'd just passed the petrol station in Braemar while taking the scenic route from Ullapool to Glasgow, having covered about 180 miles since the last fill up but determined not to stop until I needed fuel when I thought:

"Oh wait, I've seen this episode, the muppet runs out of gas in the middle of nowhere because the fuel warning light isn't working. Hilarious!"

But no! The light came on shortly after so I pressed on, taking the £1.04 per litre option at 198 miles rather than the (possible) 97p option at 224 miles.

Brim to the top, 13 litres! That's 68mpg in old money and a 260 mile range!!

Boy I'm getting old.
