I've found Bennetts to be useless. They won't sell an extension to their 45 days european cover and they won't cover Turkey. I offered to leave my bike in Greece (Rhodes) while I go to Turkey but they said that would invalidate the whole of the EU Cover. No reasons given!!
I'll try Carol Nash but its also worth mentioning that Norwich Union direct give 90 days Europe with Roadside assistance and you can add on non-EU countries for a surcharge per week that you intend to be in them. I think you can do this as you go along if you decide to stray out of Turkey into Bulgaria for a while. So I can add 2 weeks of Turkey to the standard policy. Seems quite good.
I think you'll need a carnet if you take Ozhanu's suggestions and go to Turkey. If you have to you can save about a day on the retur n trip by taking the boat from Patra to Ancona instead of from Igoumenitsa to Bari, but then you miss the road to Igoumenitsa which I've heard is very nice. I'm going that way in late August so I'll post when I get to Italy.
