I just read in a magazine review that the fuel tank on the R56 is 40litres, 10 litres down on the previous generation!

Not a problem in the efficient Cooper, but with Paul managing 29mpg on his test 'S', that 40 litres won't last long!

It's different between the S and the Cooper/One this time around, the S has a bigger capacity.
