    But when you fill it, do you top it off past the first click, or do you fill it until the first click then hang up the pump? Or am I wrong to assume you fill the tank?

    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

    I don't know - I've "overfilled" my cars (filling after the first pump click-off) for years and never had vapour lock.

    Man, I always thought vapour lock was a thing past? I always cram in as much fuel as I can...I burn off a bit right away anyhow...wouldn't recommend doing this and then leaving the car parked in the hot sun to explode.
