3 days and counting !! Simply cannot wait !........
Has anyone taken out European AA breakdown cover for the trip ?? OR are you 'flying solo' ??

 

[don alexander]

I am told I don't need AA cover as car is still covered by Porsche warranty which covers Europe.

Was checking as I have Euro breakdown with Greenflag through my RBS Bank a/c. But they don't cover anything over 16 years old, my 550 is 16.5 years old. Arghhhh
its an old banger. HaHa
luckily realised that my Classicline ins on the car gives me Euro Breakdown. Result !!!!

Not that I don't think for a minute my Ferrari 550 Maranello will be anything other than fabulous. ??????

It's a long way back to Glasgow on the other end of a tow rope [] I would have cover in place just in case

I've also got my Porsche warranty in place but not sure that it extends to European breakdown cover, so I've taken an 8 day AA European policy to be sure (£99) - never needed it before, but just to be sure . However I have full confidence in 'black betty'.

Must be an unreliable car. Mine only £63.00 if I wanted to take it out.

Full Euro cover from the AA was only £70 for me for the week of Lm. Covers everything gets you and the car home if anything happens. Best £70 you'll spend. Guarantees a trouble free trip, I know as long as I have cover I won't need it.
Oh and Have a fantastic trip guys.

Don , I owe you a beer ............. ive checked with Porsche and my warranty does extend to European cover. Called the AA this morning, spoke with someone is a far away land, and they cancelled my policy. Result ...... beer owed ! Thanks - B

996 is ready - gave it a wash and set the tyre pressures to manufactures recommendations - 2.5 bar front and 3.0 bar rear - seems high but what do i know. Got me some GB stickers but rely don't want put them on. Bought one of those European travel kits, have not opened it, will be take back for full refund if not needed.

looking forward to some German sausage.

 

[don alexander]

If you don't want to put on GB sticker, buy the EU stickers and put on your number plates. Fully legal.

Like your style, always keep a receipt!

i also think the pressures are too high, on cold tires it gets a bit lively!
I take 10% out of recommendatio 32F 40R

See u ramorra.
