I think I was pushing my luck a bit and was lucky to get away with that one!
on the plus side, not only did I get away with it but I got 418 miles from one fill up which works out to a touch over 36mpg. Not bad considering that is 100% b road driving (my drive to work is 22 miles of b road each way with only 2 overtaking spots and about 1 mile of straight in the whole trip).

That's in an 03 Cooper.

On the pre 06 minis you can get a further 15 litres into the tank by pulling out the nozzle and filling it slowly, it's the difference between 200 and 300ish miles for me hehe
