Full AA European cover is £121 take it out today phone them tomorrow.
I have done this in the UK you have to wait 24hrs for your policy to be valid IIRC.

Doesn't anyone f*cking read anymore?
Re: Trailer required - France - Fooby - 13-04-2013
Thank you all for your help and replies. Thank you for offering to come.
Unfortunately we have run out of time. We have left the car behind. Jonny will be staying at mine whilst we work on a plan to legally and safely bring the car home. I will give you guys all an update when I have proper Internets.
RE: Trailer required - France - 4WayDiablo - 13-04-2013
So you left the car in France? :-(
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
Fooby I think renting that Citroen relay is the best bet. If you need a driver give me a shout. Driven there loads of times and I have a passport.

Wow. There's a weird unnerving feeling.
RE: Trailer required - France - Toms306 - 13-04-2013
Good luck with getting it home soon as you can then guys.
Re: Trailer required - France - kentiiboii - 13-04-2013
I would suggest. That I have a passport, nothing to do on Monday, access to a a-frame, but I live in east mids and I don't have a tow bar.
RE: Trailer required - France - devils_fuel - 13-04-2013
But would the van, the car and passengers exceed the weight?
I would be up for the trip but skint but the main reason is ive got the little one on my own all weekend
Re: Trailer required - France - Fooby - 13-04-2013
Thanks Mark.
Seems like our best bet. Problem is that mileage limit. We need to do just over 1,200 miles round trip. We will get totally bummed.
We also need to make sure myself Jonny can drive it and we can take it to France.
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
I can call them tomorrow morning and ask. Normally I get let off when driving to Paris.
There is still something to pay but normally not that much.
RE: Trailer required - France - 1616six - 13-04-2013
Foob, I hired a transit beaver tail, £98 for the day, unlimited miles, I'm 21 and could drive it on my license.
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
That's why I offered to drive, I will be allowed for sure.
RE: Trailer required - France - vlj - 13-04-2013
The Picasso has a tow bar /a frame if that's any use..
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
I did portsmouth to Berlin which is 742miles so you could do the trip in two days.

Wont be legal mate. I dont think most cars can do it legally bearing in mind that a a frame technically turns the car into a braked trailer and it will be over the cars MAM. And we've all seen how the foreigners are with legalities against the british. Jonny will end up having bum sex with 4 fat coppers just to get off a substantial fine and loosing the cars.

Where exactly is the car? I have contacts in Paris!
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
Lyon I am guessing jonny.
Trailer required - France - Jonny b - 13-04-2013
Is the car somewhere safe and secure? I should be able to get it brought over!
But probably not till the weekend
RE: Trailer required - France - Niall - 13-04-2013
Jonny try messaging Fooby. He has net out there i think!
Trailer required - France - Jonny b - 13-04-2013
How far is Lyon from Paris
RE: Trailer required - France - Pompey306mark - 13-04-2013
289miles
RE: Trailer required - France - Niall - 13-04-2013
465km according to google maps
Trailer required - France - Jonny b - 13-04-2013
Ok let me make a few calls see what I can do!
Bear with me
Right my man is in Russia at the mo but will be back in France Tuesday! He's going to make a few calls, he may be able to get the car to Paris before! Then I can bring the cayenne over, at the weekend as long as costs are covered
