I have tried this research and the latest figures I can get is 2001. How much is diesel per litre (or gallon if it is priced in gallons).<BR><BR><BR>Whilst we are at it.. I am looking to hire a peugeot 407(??) or a similar size renault (2 litre engine). Was wondering how big the fuel tank is if someone happens to know it AND would I survive on the Autobahn with this car or do I need a bigger faster car to not be swept off the road?

<BR>We were in Germany last month and, according to my notes, the most we paid was 0.864 Euros/liter near Heidelberg. The cheapest was 0.834 Euros/liter along the A61 near Bingen.<BR><BR>Hope this helps.

Hi<BR><BR>diesel is cheaper in France.<BR>I am paying 0.72 / l at supermarkets here.<BR><BR>The price is more expensive at gas stations and on the autoroutes.<BR><BR>The Peugeot 407 is not launched yet !<BR>The 307 is a medium sized hatchback car. The 406 is a slightly larger saloon. The 2.0 HDI diesel engine is excellent. Top speed is 120 mph with the turbo version. Expect to get around 5.5 l per 100kms (about 50 mpg imperial, 43 mpg US).<BR><BR>Peter<BR> <BR>

Hi<BR><BR>sorry, forgot to reply to the last bit.<BR>Peugeot 406 has about 75l tank.<BR><BR>Up to 1200 kms normal use, but 1000 kms on autoroute. I don't know about the 307, but it may be a bit smaller.<BR><BR>Plenty quick enough in Germany, which has surprisingly low average speeds on the autobahn these days.<BR><BR>Peter<BR>
