UK stickers
Headlamp converters – these are a must and can be purchased at Dover or on the Ferry
Warning triangles
Reflective jackets – you will need one for each passenger and must be carried in the passenger compartment of the car
Replacement bulb kits
First aid kits – we recommend you have one in your car and Dave Riggens is our qualified first aider
Breathalyzer kits
Credit cards – please let you credit card provider know you will be travelling and bear in mind not all petrol stations will accept UK issued cards
Cash! Fines can be issued on the spot and the amount can vary so I recommend carrying some cash with you. If not, you may have an embarrasing escort journey to the ATM
DONT’S
Drink driving – limits are lower and penalties are severe!
Forget to take photos on your journey – please send all your photos to phil@sgrmarketing.co.uk or pop them in the WhatsApp group.
