Really strange thread when you think about it? Here we are having just spent probably over £20k on a new car and worrying about the amount of 'free' fuel we've got. Just £10 of fuel is probably good for a 50 mile round trip. Six miles on the other hand does seem a bit tight, if not close to the mark.

Tekna CVT 1.6 Magnetic Red - born 4/4/14 P/X 25/10/2015 for £19k with 12,000 on the clock - great car but time to change. No problems whatsoever in those 18 month's.

My dealer told me that I had £7 worth of fuel in my car he said that they weren't allowed to put in any more than that or nissan charges them £10 I find that very hard to believe

We picked up our QQ on the 16th May and it only had enough fuel for about 5 miles. As part of the showing us the working of the car and a short drive to the service station the salesman put £19.97 worth of diesel in our car......I know what a random figure !!!

I usually negotiate a tank of fuel to seal the deal but let them off this time as had already got mats, roof bars and a space saver spare wheel out of them! Think I saw on the paperwork somewhere that £20 of fuel will be included.
