yep 68 litres.....sometimes the bowser can give inacurate figures and unless you tank was dry i dont think 70 litres would have fitted.

Its probably a 68litre tank and you've just filled up another 2 litres or so into the filler neck between the tank and where you actually put the bowser nozzle in.
