Only up to just below the halfway line where the seam of the tank is, at least that's where it is on my Range Rover.
It makes the water level a bit of a bugger to spot. Easier to tell when there is a decent amount of OAT anti-freeze in the fluid because it colours it.
There is usually a Triangle pattern on the side of the tank nearest the wing and it is only meant to be showing filled to that point when cold.
Hope this helps.

clear ones are known for splitting. change it for a black one, if you get it.

Yes it looks empty to me also.
As the tank is opaque u will get an idea of the coolant level which should be up to around the halfway seam.
The Range Rover had the opaque the Disco1 had black when they left the factory.

My understanding it that its the other way round, maybe that's why its now fitted with the opaque one.

You didn't enquire why you purchased them, and all the other new D1s in the dealers compound had black ones.had clear on two of my Discos. Both split
