Pros: We had a broken car battery with our upgraded car just before getting the ferry to the main land. Commication went very well, also because because the help of some locals. A new car was delivered at the mainland because off the time limit, we had to catch the plane, i could deliver the car at the airport. So a bit stressfull day but at the end all went fine. Great service !!!! only 1 "problem"...why are there no sign to the airport. A motorised police man had to escort me...
