    Stansted is an ultra competitve location and hence there are some good deals to be had.

    Have a look at carhiresearch.co.uk.

    Saved over 20 quid from most suppliers using this car hire link, many thanks for the advice!

    Incidentally, I am pretty certain that UK citizens can join foreign (within the EU) driving clubs - I am an expat in Austria with membership of the local ÖAMTC (equivalent of the UK A) - full Europe wide breakdown cover is included as part of my membership and in the UK the partner company is the AA anyway - just thought this might be interest to folks trying to save money on the RAC and AA for breakdown cover in the UK.
