Yikes!!
On the XJ a week or two ago I had knocked the trip counter. I assumed that I had another 30 miles until hitting reserve, and then just as I went to pin it on a dual carriageway it went thudthud thuuuud.
Couldn’t reach the tap and switch to reserve quick enough and had to pull over.
Would hate to experience that without a spare few litres to dredge!

Looks like a great adventure, nice weather for it too. Found out the hard way the petrol gauge on the SRAD has an intermittent fault, had to join RAC after being stranded. I'll investigate what's going on with the fuel level sender but lesson learnt, will now be going off the odometer instead of waiting for the fuel light.
