As noted above, if the map isn't up to muster, you could end up with a far more substantial bill, not that you need telling that really after your bad luck last time out.

How does the cost of attending Germany as a passenger compare? Could that be a compromise? Go without the car and save more towards the car when you get back?

You still get a trip with your mates, just not in the car.

Well as me and the wife are going its the flights would be the issue then sorting transportation from airport to where ever we go then to germany vise verser .
