Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    What do you need?
    Like will the full license be enough or do you need some special requirement and do you need any special insurance for it?

    Cheers.

    Every insurance company is obliged to privide unlimited cover for the EU with their third party insurance.
    But any aditional cover (fire, theft, damage to own car, windscreen, etc.) while being abroad depends on terms and conditions of your policy.
    Most companies would offer free EU cover for some time (month, two or three). Others would require you to pay extra even if you're going for 1 day.
    Others may provide you with full cover for unlimited time.

    Anyway, third party always applys without any additional charges, so you'll be always road legal.

    When it comes to documents, you'll need your driving licence, and car registration certificate (know as logbook). Also you'll need your insurance certificate (disc is not enough). Make sure to carry all there with you at all times when driving.
    Also make sure not to leave your registration certificate in the car, as if car would be stolen with it, you might have serious trouble.
