Seen a lovely Bianco White one with 21k on clock, absolutely mint, vey, very tempted.

Just got a great deal on breakdown through www.rescuemycar.com

£40 for 9 days cover on a 21 year old car, good value I would say.

For some reason they wont give me a quote due to my cars age, mines a 93. Did you get yours online?

They'll quote me if I do mine as a 94, but they do say £64.50 for Euro cover which is a chunk more than I paid with Tesco...

Edit: I've found 2 products, they won't quote me on their "European short period breakdown cover" but if I do a quote for their normal brakedown cover I can then select European afterwards...

£40 is a good deal. Got mine through my own insurance last year but that was just for 2days and i think it was around the same price. Ill give them a call tomorrow. Be careful when putting in the age of your car, if you need to call them out the mechanic will probably check as that breakdown company sub contract and they wont get paid if there is a discrepancy.

Yep mine cam yesterday as well - it's exactly tyhe same as my DartTag for the Dartford crossing, so that at least means I haven't gotta bother sticking something else to the winscreen - I can just use the same bracket \:D/

If anyone needs any last minute camping stuff millets have a big sale on. I got a new decent sleeping bag for £24 reduced from £50. Worth a look.

All you need to do is email Dominique! And then decide if you're coming down from MK with the rest of us who live here...

Get this for bad timing. The pipe from hell has cracked under my car, been to 2 garages and they cant fix it till late next week, no good for me. Had to bite the bullet and go to toyota today, going to be expensive but they reckon it will be ready for Tue, they have the part there tomorrow. Literally every time I have something planned something goes wrong. Not this time, if need be Ill be bumbling down to Lemans in my mums Yaris!!!
