Timbobaggins, you could also use www.mappy.com it gives tolls distance, fuel stations especailly useful if you are looking for cheaper fuel, i.e. french supermarkets on the autoroutes, and whatever else you need.

8 - 9 hours driving. But if speed is reduced (rain, let alone snow) it might take longer. And don't forget to add the stops. personally I wouldn't waste time driving off the autoroute spending ages looking for a few bob off petrol. Not if you want to get there quickly.

Timbobaggins, fill in Calais before you get on the motorway, if its a 2.0 you should be able to get to Chambery on a tank, if your not to loaded, i do it with 3 in a saloon, that way if you fill up there you should get the winter additive to stop your diesel going solid. The anorak in me cant help but give you this site for fuel prices www.prix-carburants.gouv.fr

Timbobaggins, yep easy drive - on motorways all the way Moutiers and then a short trip up the valley to La Ros
2 of our kids get travel sick, so we stop at Albertville and give them a tablet

I would have said 8.5 with stops for kids, however as it is all motorway and it is 536 miles you should be able to do it in about 7 hours but depends on your stopping strategy

If you bang it down at over a ton, you should be able to get there in about 5 hrs.
