Many thanks for the answers all. Yup, believe it or not we do only have a choice of two insurance companies here, so they can charge what they want really. I know of guys paying 7 or 8,000 euros TPO to ride restricted CBR600's worth only half that.
So am I picking up from some of your replies that I can still enter the country without the green card, i.e. once I buy insurance at the border ? That would be fine by me, all I want is in !
If I crashed or broke down I'd just get a truck or something to carry it back to the ferry, and then use the AA or RAC breakdown to get it back home.
