When travelling in Europe be sure to take with you all the essential, legally required equipment. The list applies to cars rather than motorcycles but you risk an on the spot fine if you are found without these items.
The items can be purchased separately from places like Halfords or other similar outlets but surprisingly enough Aldi are currently selling a European Motoring Kit.
It all packs away in a convenient holdall and for just £14.99 is a useful way of getting it all together.
The kit contains 2 Hi Visibility Vests, a universal spare bulb kit (but you may need to check that this complies with your particular vehicle) a warning triangle, headlight beam benders, and first kit and a useful glovebox torch and a GB sticker for the rear of your vehicle.
The only extra needed would be a Fire Extinguisher. A legal requirement in France where it is deemed to be every Citizens Duty to assist in a fire.
So don’t get caught out this summer. Get down to Aldi and check it out.
Be sure to check the legal requirement for the particular country you are visiting and don’t forget, it applies to the countries that your are simply passing through to get to your final destination.
