A V6 will do that without breaking a sweat  ;) ;)

The last long distance mine did was to France & back a couple of years ago. Over 1800 miles in a fortnight, most of which were towing, never missed a beat, but didn't miss many petrol stops either  ::)  ::)  ::) Averaged 18.5 mpg  :y

Mine managed 32mpg over same distance in France. See, pikey boxes are bad.....

Most I've done in a single day was 800 miles from Brakkers to where we were staying in southern France, arriving at approx 9pm, only to find out that they were not expecting us, and no accomodation ;D.
