I'm off to W Sussex in the beemer next week- 160 miles each way. The journey does have the advantage that the destination household have a pukka charging point, but even a UK 13a 3 pin would get the car charged up over time for the return if necessary.
So you didn't go for the extended range option or whatever it is called?

Mind you I can see the benefits of rolling up at someone's house and getting them to pay for you fuel ....

Unlikely to happen with petrol or diesel I suppose.
