Morning all, does anyone know if it is possible to get a hire car from say Spain and drive it back to the UK? Then keep it in the UK for a few weeks and then return it?
Cheers

Reason being is we are planning to travel around the Med on our boat and have a dog, and to get him back to the UK with us when we are visiting, he has to be in a car on a ferry to avoid the huge airline costs etc
One way hire to continental ferry port, board ferry with pooch as foot passengers, alight in Blighty hire UK car at ferry port repeat procedure t'otherway round when you go back to the boat.

I bought Nissan tino 2.2d 4 years ago to take the dog to Greece it cost £695 .still got it ,insurance around £180 pa.I sorn it when its parked up in Greece.
It's cheap to fly with a dog on KLM and a possible route is to fly to Amsterdam, train to Hook van Holland port and a ferry from there to Harwich, there may be other ferry routes where you can walk on with a dog but without a car.
Get a white stick and a yellow jacket for the dog. No questions will be asked on the ferry.

How will the dog hold the white stick?
In its mouth like any other stick and ready to whack the back of somebody's legs!
We had exactly the same problem last year, having sailed over and left the boat in Brittany.Reason being is we are planning to travel around the Med on our boat and have a dog, and to get him back to the UK with us when we are visiting, he has to be in a car on a ferry to avoid the huge airline costs etc
