looks like a 2 day drive each way [ame=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millau_Viaduct]Millau Viaduct - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame] ....so 4 tanks of fuel, 4 nights accomodation, food and drink... £240, £160, £100... and extended breakdown cover, insurance and spending money, around £600 sounds about right.

In the form of a boot load of hand tools , remember the sunny south meet where JR asked for the steering remote radio control adaptor, I happened to have one there :lol:
i was looking at that earlier (the SS meet), good times! Shame i missed the Midlands meet it has been amazing weather. the 2012 trip will be my 1st drive overseas!
Fuel costs at the end of the day all come down to how heavy footed we are when we drive? over a long drive like this i wouldn't want to be bombing it the whole way, could save quite a bit of money! my twingo economy varies, i've done anything from 120miles to a tank to 360 miles (driving like a saint)
Dont look at me lol my 19 16v would do less than that to a tank! 300 miles if i was lucky but I do have a heavy right foot.
As for this trip, last time I did it i took a diesel astra which I filled up 3 times and it does 450 miles to a tank.
Then you have to consider tolls for the autoroutes which soon add up, if you take the A roads and avoid the autoroutes you really wont save that much because of the extra fuel you use.
I did about £250 in diesel and toll charges on a return trip to the south of france in the Astra.
Now with the Evo i would be spending about £600 just in fuel lol
