Can't make this - things very hectic at the mo (and, yes, I took early retirement, and just as well I did!). I will try and catch up with Worzel soon - maybe a trip up to see him?

Steve (Worzel), Regarding repatriation, I have established that I am covered within my RAC cover, however, it has a limit of £2500 for a claim. Is this in line with yours, or any one elses for that matter??

Cheers

Yes Putline or even better NF from Rodger Clarke. I will be using this only at the Ring. If the trip this year is anything like last year nobody went that fast to be honest apart from the odd blast. So no real need for octane boost on the way there. From now on all octane boost will be known as Worzel juice. Ive a bottle put to one side just for you mate

Just had a quick look through mine it say's quote THE MAXIMUM WE WILL PAY UNDER THIS POLICY TO REPATRIATE THE INSURED VEHICLE WILL BE LIMITED TO ITS CURENT MARKET VALUE IN THE UK AREA.
So £2500 for your Scoob is about right then.

£2500 is plenty. No problem.

You could hire a low loader yourself and get it back cheaper than that.
