One liter will just be enough for bleeding all 4 calipers plus the clutch slave cylinder (if you have a 6-speed manual).
FWIW, I use ATE DOT 4 fluid and alternate between their "gold" and "blue" which makes it super easy to know when you've bled through and have fresh fluid (the color changes!). This fluid is plenty fine for street use, but you may want something else if you track the car.

Pretty sure you can't buy it anymore, in the u.a anyways , had to change to the regular stuff in my still a couple years ago, just flushed fluid in my C4S a couple months ago and liter is fine, I bought another liter to have for topping off.

Correct...No Mas on the Blue stuff AFAIK... I just used a quart/liter of the ATE Gold DOT4 bleeding/refilling my clutch line/slave cylinder yesterday (I had removed the line from the slave cylinder to do some "motor out" work).
