   Easy question, I have a 1.1 and was wondering roughly how many miles it can go while the petrol light is on?

   It will go as far as what MPG your car does. Roughly 10 gallon fuel tank, so if you get 350 miles from a full tank, then you can expect to get 35 miles with the light on.
   
   There is a thread about this in General Chat IIRC.

   I just did 50 miles in a 1.4 206 on the red light. I would'nt risk more than that
