My GF has run her Yaris out of fuel at least 3 times ....

To be fair, the gauge is useless ..... but 3 times !!!

*touches wood* i've never ran out of fuel .... although I must have been close once when my 3.2 V6 (thirsty) Audi was reading 0 miles to empty for a good 20mins of stop start London traffic !!!

So whats the furthest you ever had to push a bike to get fuel? It took me over an hour and a half to push the bike 2000 yards (according to multimap!) once. It was relatively flat, but slightly undulating country lane, and by christ, in full armoured winter textile jacket (including bodywarmer) and leather trousers, with a helmet hanging off a wing mirror, every slight undulation up I never noticed before was excruciatingly tough - sometimes I'd push it literally a few feet and stop for a breather!

Yup, been there and done that...in the pouring rain in winter too. Got so hot that my head nearly popped so had to take lid off...and got soaked as rain ran down my neck too.
Not fun. No sir-ee.

Yes, what you need when you break down is a white knight with a coke bottle, or was it a water bottle, full of fuel.

What a tit.
