Overnight I sometimes download around 20-40gb of data. Sometimes this can be more though, as high as 60gb. this could happen 2-3 times a week

This is traffic from a SFTP Server.
These downloads are done outside of traffic policy's etc enforced by Virgin.

Is Virgin likely to rape me hard for download lots of data overnight? As in warnings letters and the like for downloading large amounts of data?

An Example in the last two nights I have downloaded 80GB in total so far.
80GB wouldn't even be considered high usage any more frankly!

I've downloaded far more in a day when I had to re-install Windows and had to re-download a lot of Steam games that went poof after Windows decided that a clean install included deleting the entire HDD!

So if I'm honest, especially if it's overnight, you'll be perfectly fine.
