Hmm, interesting idea, going to Dortmund! But that's 2 ferries each way instead of one!
Three and a half large, ouch. Do they take luncheon vouchers?!
As an aside, been checking my breakdown cover. If you break down within a mile of home then it's taking to the nearest garage only but under 'Recovery of the vehicle and passengers' it says this:
'We will arrange help and pay the cost of taking you, passengers and the vehicle to any one place you choose' and excludes transportation to more than one place and transportation of more than 5 passengers
Under what's covered under alternative travel or emergency overnight hotel accommodation it says
'Alternative road or rail travel, or one night’s hotel accommodation for you and up to 5 passengers and also refunding the cost of travel for one person to collect the repaired vehicle' while excluding breakdowns occurring within 25 miles of the home address.
Now, in your humble opinions, does this mean that I can pack a bag, hope it will drive on and off a ferry and about fifteen miles down the road (if it makes it!) and then ring them up to tell them I have a gearbox problem which is ruining my weekend in Glasgow but I have found someone up there to have a look at it while I'm there?!
It feels wrong, I know. But I dread getting quotes for someone to do a 500 mile run with that on a flatbed
