or to put it another way… minimum distance will be 3,363 km – about 1 day 18 hours (total driving) which if we got 400k per tank (which is easy enough to do the car has done 600k on a single tank) will be around 8 fuel stops at say $50 per fill up or around $400 in fuel… plus another $200 in accommodation along the way (on the way up only)… so the trip will cost in the ball park of $600 to do.
