Depending on the speed of the convoy I'll be looking at 55-60mpg 8) Shame it's not the Four :'( but I'll be at the back of the convoy for 3 reasons,
1. I'll be in a BMW :o ;D
2. Slip stream the convoy for higher MPG ;D ;D ;D
3. I'll be following ;)

Well...having led most of the way (badly :D) I managed 51.3mpg average 8) over a 488 mile round trip.
That includes leaving the car running on the stand for an hour charging Chris's phone and then mine seen as somebody whacked the generator up to 300 volts and setting my mains charger alight ;D :o
