You are absolutely right about hire companies; if they will allow you to go abroad they want about twice the price. Recently, after not finding an acceptable deal I remembered a pal with a Transit, who was happy to lend it to me so long as I arranged suitable insurance including breakdown cover. The breakdown insurance people wanted extra for my age (I am 77) until I pointed out that the van was not that old!
