usually there will be a gaalon left when the light comes on. so whatever mpg your car goes thats how many miles it will do. this also depends on how u drive it. will last longer if u drive in as high a gear as possible and not change too often, also dont always accelerate hard and it will do u a bit longer

The petrol light usually indicates about 5 litres left in the tank. How far a 1.2 Clio (or any car) can go on 5 litres varies depending on road and traffic conditions, speed, driving style and even the weather - could be as much as 70 miles, or as little as 25 miles.

If it's a petrol engine, then put a jerry can in the boot and find out for yourself. Don't try this if it's a diesel engine, the fuel feed will need to be primed again - an AA/RAC call-out job unless you're mechanically minded.

Not many. It means you need to be more organised about fuelling up if this is a regular occurence. Just think of the c**p from your tank that you are putting in the carburettor if you let the fuel run so low. You could cause yourself a lot of probs.

usually around 25 miles poss 30, roughly the distance to service stations on motorways, thats the idea anyway...

Whatever the vehicle, diesel or petrol, it should give you approx. 30 miles

In your handbook it will tell you that you have approximately a gallon left when the fuel lights comes on .
