Any ABR member live near or know Hollfeld, Germany?

Bit of a long shot but everything is worth a try! In 2016 on the way back from the IZI rally in Poland we stumbled upon a great campsite near Hollfeld, Germany after playing satnav bingo and closest campsite wins! Trying to find it on Google and Google Maps isn't working and we didn't check in on Fa...

Re: 10 Years Ago This Month

Think I joined late 2012 First blooding was The Dambuster Run in 2013 which was a hell of a trip. Still chuckle at the Irish lads' tent filling with water during the storm so they tipped the water out, carried it ten yards and carried on. Ace! Many happy memories of new friends made and glorious sce...

Was only aware of them wanting to ensure we can always get home insurance (after the floods) a home is considered a necessity I guess,, whereas transport is a personal choice although pretty much essential...

Re: pcp balloon payment

There is a way out. Have the cash in your bank. Do the finance deal after establishing the 'cooling off' period. Immediately you take delivery of the asset, cancel the finance and pay off the balance. they can't take the 'deposit contribution' back. You can get £2k off the cost of a new car like th...

Re: pcp balloon payment

I had a diesel car where this wasn't the case, I just handed it back and left the manufacture / dealer work out who was going to take the loss. That’d be the finance company, that takes the pote...

Re: EU. In or out?

Sounds really democratic - whose lifetime sets the limits? When that person dies we then get another vote? When did the person die that set the once in a lifetime vote that took us into the EEC? I'm sorry but to dictate that no one alive today will ever get a chance to change their minds or vote ag...
