Range Rover, a real one, not a Sport. Why sit in a car for three days when you can sit in what's practically a comfortable arm chair?

I'd say probably a 535d or a jaguar 2.7d. Both have no problems cruising at high speeds while using very very little fuel. Only problem is... you may fall asleep because of the serenity of the ride. Especially if the cabin is warm and it's dark outside.

Well, if you are going to stick to the speed limit, a Honda Insight hybrid - it does 83 mpg, and at legal speeds, it doesn't matter what performance you have.

Or, a Rolls-Royce Phantom SWB, if you want to have a long journey and not even know that you have even been anywhere.

Don't you think a diesel like an Ibiza Ecomotive or a 1er would be better in those circumstances?

And you'd probably pass through Germany where there are stretches of motorway with no speed limits. And anyway it's not like going to stick strictly to the limit either.

^^^ Most likely.
In the 2000 odd miles in Europe recently I'm CONVINCED I had to overtake the same Skoda Fabia every time I had to pull in and fill the Mazda So not only was he as fast on average he was one HELLUVA lot cheaper ... but I contest not as much fun
