I think you'll find that you'll get much more mpg on a long trip, rather than either pootling round Douglas or charging round the TT circuit and getting 18 to the gallon. You'll get 230 or more to the tank, and SUL (98 RON) is available EVERYWHERE in Europe.

Not such a bad idea, bug-eyed !

Pop the car onto the Motorail in Calais at around 6pm and arrive at Nice around 10am the next morning. French Motorail

Ack, just checked the timetable and realised they don't start until mid-May
