UK HOLIDAYMAKERS risk
potentially high costs by not taking out enough car hire insurance when abroad.
According to the latest Post Office Travel Money report on car hire, more than
half of consumers do not take out Excess Waiter Insurance, which reduces the
excess payable for accidents or theft to zero.
In addition more than 75 percent
were not covered for tyre, undercarriage, or window damage.
Those who damage
their car and do not have the right insurance could face charges of £418
minimum in Turkey while they could pay double that in Spain, and more £1,000 in
Ireland and Switzerland.
The report said
that in comparison, the extra insurance for a week would cost 10 to 12 percent of
the excess payable.

In a survey of 16
European countries, Cyprus came out cheapest for car hire at £295, with Malta
at £317 and Turkey at £325, compared to £614 for a seven-day hire in Norway.
