Hire a transit for the day, more reliable than an old banger and much less hassle.

You would be surprised just how much booze you can fit in cars as well.... I squeezed half a fooking Vinyard and 90% of a french Brewery plus 3 people into a E46 M3 during the Rugby world cup. Admittidly the roof wouldn't close and the guys in the back couldn't breathe very well but it was alot of booze!

Is wine and beer still that much cheaper than the supermarkets over here? Just curious as I know there wasn't that much in it with the beers and the wine was quite a bit but then when add your costs of going over, etc, etc there wasn't that much in it price wise.
