Last year a guy from ponte took a mk1. I will definately be going, though. As for you being at the front.... we'll see about that. Jackman do you want to tell him about the incident with the Belgian police or shall i?? See you there if you can keep up. Dev TurboDave said

I thought adac picked you up if you broke down on the ring. If your a member then you gotta make sure you ask for an adac lorry and make it clear you are a member. Thats what i heard. Last year i went in my mates xe'd corsa cos my car was not ready (and wont be this year Edited by AL on 19th Mar, 2007. |

) and on the way back to our campsite on our last day his cv decided to break in half along with the hub (not going mad, driving back nice and slow, v lucky it didnt happen on the ring tbh). Oh dear we thought, thats a special part and we are meant to be leaving in about 14 hours. Luckily he had european breakdown cover on his insurance. They paid for me and him to fly back to gatwick, paid for us to get to the airport too (koln i think), and had the car shipped back to his house in about 2weeks. If i remember correctly the flight for us was 300euros alone plus about 100 for the cab to the airport, dread to think what the cost of shipping the car back was. But all it cost was £40 on his insurance for european breakdown cover. If i remember correctly he was with HIC.
