Yeah! I put the Long Range tank(the one where you pump the fuel into the standard tank) and in my TdV6 if I don't go over 110kph I get 10ltr/100km so that means 1960km on one fill. Proved that recently when I drove from Adelaide to Sydney and still had a half full standard tank.:D

They quote usable litres @ 104lts, quite often other companies quote capacit which may not be usable !Its worth Checking if your paying the extra money for litres that may not be there !

They are $1120.00

I've got the Longrangeautomotive 110 litre tank. It only takes 104l from dry, but 6l is neither here nor there.

Especially since the last time I filled the original tank when the range was on 0, I got 88 litres into the 82 litre tank!

Yes my point exactly, Its not a few litres here nor there, its the fact of the misleading information to create sales (and charge over $300 more) over a tank builder that gives you an honest usable amount the tank can hold !

Does anyone know how much the tank on a tdv6 actuly holds as I have put 85L in
mine a couple of times and thats to the first click of the pump. I'm guessing they hold about 90L
