As far as I recall BF don't ask for this information either although it's a while since I booked with them. Difficult to prove when the vehicle entered the country without asking Eurotunnel or the ferry company for a copy of the number plate details they appear to record via the low level cameras at check in.

Then you must use a different booking system from the rest of us. It's just type of vehicle, then some length and weight options to choose when you book via the company web site. Well done Mr & Mrs O. Will intentionally blank signature http://www.vienormande.com    Report
