Unless its rooted it will go 600kms on 40L easily.

Once went 680KM's on a tank in 1e/5 speed EP80 (very closely related)
Damn thing didn't run out, just chickened out and filled it up

Got similar in EP90.
Starlets rule in general, get a 5 speed one though if poss, so much more pleasant at 100kmh

If my experience is anything to go by, the Mira will be quite a bit faster than the Starlet, but if you crash a Mira ... well, you're only going to crash it the once. They are made out of tin foil.
