How far in limp mode?

I keep getting a cylinder misfire and injector being shut off... How far can I safely drive in limp mode?

As long as it takes to reach a BMW service center. I hear of people driving hundreds of miles with the car in limp mode, but for obvious reasons it is not recommended.

limp mode is meant to protect the motor if a failure occurs. I would avoid driving it at all in limp mode really.
