I have one of the Sanef tag already. Its cost me £45 so far. That includes a £20 deposit you get back and the £12 yearly subscription plus initial deposit. You get invoiced a month after travelling.

Do you clip yours to the upper central windscreen or wave it at the machine?

I have not used it yet. But i intend to place it in the area near the rear view mirror. Or thats where i been advised to place it. I just planned early for 2 weeks in France in june. You can also transfer it to different vehicles. Its all linked to the same bank account, so would not advise lending it out or you might find yourself a bit short in your bank account the following month :rofl: :thumbsup:
+1 I stupidly forgot about mine and left it in my old car when I sold it. They only went and took the car to France couple of weeks later... they must have wondered what was going on when the barriers shot up. Luckily it was a decent bloke who sent it back with a cheque for the toll fees!

Hmm good idea. I think I need to look into those chip things.

My wife sit's abnormally high in the car (looks like a booster seat!), so hopefully she will be able to reach a little better.

We travelled in the 335xd which is a good bit higher than the Z4 but she still found it awkward. The first year costs for the gizmo is quite high. Set up fee / Deposit then a monthly usage fee but it will be worthwhile to swish thro. :thumbsup:

Hmm interesting. Not sure how many times I will use it outside of this year though. I will look into it though. Thanks!
 
It seems to me that the roads in Brittany are pretty fine and the way is not boring at all, I drove there last April, it was all right, nothing to be worried about, safe and good quality surface. I have something to compare with: driving in Greek mountains last December was pretty scary, rain and fog plus a rental Citroen was not a pleasant experience at all. Though I really liked the country, checking business opportunities there and maybe for start will consider buying apartment in Athens for an air bnb project, the city has become extremely popular among tourists recently even in winter, let's see :)
