Hi
I'm moving to Germany for 8 months in August and want to take my car. Im currently insured with Direct Line in the UK and want to have comprehensive cover in Germany.
Does anybody know of an insurance company who will be able to provide this? Any advice and links would be greatly appreciated

Are you intending to keep the UK plate on your car or reregister it with a german plate0
-
as its just for 8 months im not intending on registering it on German plates - it's my understanding this isnt required for stays of less than 12 months. I would have to reverse it on my return to britain tooDebts at LBM (May '08) £5760 - Lloyds CC £4260, Lloyds OD £1500;Debts as of May 28th 2011:Santander CC: £0.00Lloyds OD : £0.00DFW Nerd #1247 - Proudly dealt with my Debts

Call Direct Line. They may be able to extend your cover in Europe, but you won't know if you don't ask them!0
