our old one had a warning light, at which point you knew you had 30-40 miles left, roughly. The new one beeps at 50 miles remaining, then again at 25 miles.
It's pretty useful, but I don't believe it.
There was an episode of Top Gear a while back where Jeremy Clarkson drove an Audi from London to Edinburgh and back again on a single tank - the computer said he was down to zero miles while he was still quite a way from the finish point and he still made it...
