There's a connection with Ayamonte:

Karma question: Where can you find a (smaller) copy of "La pesca del atun" in Ayamonte?

Regards,
Carol
When we saw the Sorolla exhibition in Valencia they had a shop which sold loads of books, posters and other things.

....and then (not the same day) up to Rosal de la Frontera across into Portugal, across the river at Serpa, and back down through Alcoutim. Then a rest!!!

You pay a tad more - but I think this insurance element makes it worthwhile.

I've made a lot of bookings this year, and only recently (through the forum) found about about

www.insurance4carhire.com they do a one off insurance that covers you for these 'hidden extras'. 49UK Europe wide for a year 59UK if you include USA. Multiple voyages each year with a 31 day max per voyage (I think) A great idea for me. But they are havent responded yet to questions I emailed them about last week

For your information here is what I emailed them below:

Once I get an answer I will post the info..

Regards
Jon

Here is the mail they have not yet responding to:

I am interested in your insurance for Car Rental in Europe to cover any damages etc.

Please can you answer the following questions specifically:
  1. I am required to take the 'standard cover' offered by the car rental people?
  2. Can I reject any insurance offered by the renter and still be covered?.
  3. I live in Belgium (UK citizen) can I buy this please? I see on the web form that I can put in Belgium as country of residence for example so I assume all is OK
  4. If I rent with my wife as secondary driver, are we still covered please?
Hi for those of you that are interested in the car excess policy... i took it out and got this email from them it has the details copied below with various highlights added.

Note that I have no commercial connection with this company - just a recent client... and I heard about it from this forum in the 1st place.

We are in Santa Barbara where it is very sunny - off to the vineyards today, CE/Ayamonte/Algarve etc has some competition out there!!

NIE are in Huelva not in Ayamonte. Either you or your lawyer will have to make that trip if you want an NIE. It is funny though that a Spanish person can get a passport in Ayamonte but has to go to Huelva to get their DNI renewed.

Thanks Michaelh and Betris for reply. I will be going to Huelva by myself in a few weeks. From reading other forums about obtaining NIE, got an impression that you have to be well prepared for a trip in such institutions. Not sure about Huelva, but heard that in other towns you can spend all day in a queue, crowded places, terrible bureaucracy ect. I am sure every experience in different but any advice when to get there, and what to expect would be very welcome.

regards
Mika

Well.Take some butties and a flask....No its not too bad But the problem is you may go down tomorrow and its one thing.go six months later and its another.Then its back to the original so you are best asking some one who has done it in the last few weeks.For me It was simple.two ques.one long non european.the short other european.Fill out a form.Make sure you get a reciept for the filled in form.Go back a month latter with the reciept and pick it up.But as I said.check first as things change very often with them.

oooops the guy gave permission in his email for me to forward so I thought it was OK. Here it is again, without any private telephone or contact details, just general details of the policy for Excess car insurance...which one could find easily on the web. Ive highlighted some points, also included the website address which has already appeared on the forum




This policy covers the Excess (excess on theft, excess on damage, and damage to windows, tyres, the undercarriage and the roof) on your car rental. It supplements the insurance for LDW (Loss Damage Waiver)/CDW (Collision Damage Waiver) that you must take out at the time of rental, and which is generally included in the price of the car rental.

Excess cover is always voluntary. You should decline the car rental company's excess cover at the counter when the car is collected. There is no need to show your Policy Document at the counter as we insure the Policy Holder, not the rental vehicle. If the car is damaged or stolen, the car rental company will charge your credit card for the Excess amount and you should then claim for reimbursement on your Policy. Full details of how to submit a claim are contained in your Policy Document.

Lastly, just to remind you that: the Policyholder must be the person renting the vehicle; all additional drivers on the rental agreement are covered: it is not valid to rent a vehicle within 150 km of your usual place of residence and you must be aged 21-74 to be eligible for the Policy (75 to 85 for those who have purchased a Europe 75-85 or Excess Worldwide 75-85 Policy).

Please ensure that your Policy is in place before the commencement date of the rental agreement.

We would be grateful if you could pass details of our site ....

Hi

A question for the rago 1 community - is your street named Paseo Blasco Ibanez II? - as some of the mail we receive at rago 2 makes less sense than normal !!

Thanks
