 The cost of taking your car abroad - smokie
Yes that's pretty good. I just thought it would be cheaper to take my own car than rent locally, but it isn't, even when saving the cost of a flight etc...


We have a motoring trip planned for late April for 3 weeks - France, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium then France to come home.

At the moment the testing requirements are not particularly clear and we have the holiday under review, for the 2nd year in a row! At least this time everything is cancellable and we won't lose money like we did last time!!

(From what we read, we need a test to get into France, where we were simply going to scoot through and straight through Belgium for 5 nights in Holland - but we don't think we are allowed into Belgium at all. Then a test in Holland to get us into Germany - though we might be able to go without if we are travelling from a Schengen country - but because we have been in a high risk within the last 10 days we may need one - then maybe another test t get into Belgium and France to end the holiday. I think we are considering very much "worst case" and of course it may well have changed by then but we are looking at alternative plans anyway.)
