i'm not sure if this guy is reffering to the milage you get from one tank of fuel or how many miles you can get out of the car before it dies...............

well out of one tank, around 350 taking it easy.

In general, mines done 120k and still as great as the day it rolled from the factory. Look after em well (service every year, if not twice, and dont rag it). I reckon i'll be good till around 180-200k once i change the cambelt. Head mite go then or summat.

check Haynes manual.

Corsa hatch back and corsa van models are 46.0ltr (10.1 gallons)

Corsa combo van models are 50.0ltr (11.0 gallons)

I aint arguin such a stupid point as its in the Haynes manual and its very unlikely that they are wrong, when it comes to figures such as these. Oh and that covers all corsas Bs up to 2000.

doubt it, they'll have different floorpans, and so different mounting points etc. aldo most were diesel, so youd have to get it cleaned out before you could use it.
