A 3M double sided sticky pad would have cost you circa a quid. Much as I hate the B'stards, used to work for them, there automotive products are very good, especially the adhesive pads.
The type of heat the car would see should not affect the adhesive.

If I had been at home there wouldn’t have been a problem but I would have had to find a shop, source cleaning fluid etc.

As pvr says €25 sounds like a bargain in the circumstances.
Hopefully you won't have any more issues while you enjoy your trip.

It’s been hot and also been parked in the direct sun and it’s still attached.
I süßpect the previous void and reduced contact area was the initial fault.
