Insurance and associated costs in UK
 

Just planning a trip to the UK late july, getting the shipping of R11GS sorted. I need some contact to get insured in the UK, also travelling around Europe, whats the procedure for cover in these countries? What is a green card? Please list anything that I may miss (necessary documents). I would be grateful of any help.
Regards, Dave

Dave - a green card is the proof of insurance used in Europe. Least hassle way to obtain is from ADAC, the German Automobile Association. They sell third party insurance on a monthly basis for foreign registered vehicles.

Miriam speaks good English, and she arranged our green card insurance for Europe before we arrived, then renewed it for us by phone (I think they require fax of credit card details now). As of Jan/2001, they are still in this business.

You might also ask your NZ insurance company about green card insurance for Europe, or indeed whether they will cover you for UK or Europe for comprehensive liability, etc.
