113.9 ! Confusedhock:

I see it made your engine check light come on. I wouldn't risk it getting that low, it can damage your cat if it starts coughing.

Ah, fuel light bingo. I've played many times and won, just. I've had the petrol light on and the fuel range down to zero. Didn't chance it much further though.
