I have a 6 gallon one fron Luego in my V8 Viento. I usually do just over 100 miles then fill up. I just spend a lot of time in filling stations.
Mind you, I get to chat to the till girls and other customers. So a small tank has more social aspects than a larger one!
Also mine gives me more boot space.
I dont have a box in my rear section, I just use a cargo net and bungy cords. You can get an awful lot of gear stowed that way. ie tent, bedding etc.
Ideal for Stoneleigh etc.
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
Geoff

I also did the same as above had one made up locally with baffle plates and vent tubes, works out to approx 58 litres so get a good mileage range, all
for the measly sum of £80-gotta b happy with that!!!!!
Was tight to get in position though, I made a plywood mock up one and gaffer taped it together to make sure it would go in.
