Save $350 on 21-day use of Renault in Europe
■ IF you’re heading to Europe before June 30 this year and are still undecided about that car for a self-drive holiday, Renault Eurodrive have a huge $300 saving on select family-size Scenic models if booked before May 16 and collected by June 30. It’s brought the price for a whole 21-days* lease of a Scenic 1.5 Manual to just $1599, and for 21-days* for a Scenic 1.6 Diesel Manual to $1699, with additional days just $34 for both models.. There are no collection or return fees at 17 locations in France, while small fees apply at
32 European locations, and both models come with built-in Europe GPS. They also include unlimited kilometres, full insurance with no excess in 42 countries – and that includes cover for tyres, lost or stolen keys and fuel inversion – no additional-driver charges, 24-hour roadside assistance as well as full factory warranty, and minimum age for drivers is 18 years with no maximum age limit. Full details: phone toll-free 1300 55 11 60 or visit www.renaulteurodrive.com.au* Minimum lease period is 21-days. - David Ellis
Free RACV roadside service for young drivers
■ More than half of all 18 year olds living in Victoria are covered by RACV’s free2go motoring assistance program, which is now celebrating its fifth year. RACV’s free2go program provides young drivers with free emergency roadside assistance at a time when they have the least experience on the road. It also provides parents with peace of mind, knowing that help is just a phone call away for their young driver in case of an emergency. RACV General Manager Motoring and Mobility, Gordon Oakley, said free2go has continued to grow since its launch in 2007, with approximately 118,000 young Victorians currently participating in the program. “RACV’s free2go is available to all Victorians aged 18 to 20 years, as well as year 12 students,” Mr Oakley said. “Starting out as a motorist isn’t always cheap, with expenses in obtaining a licence, buying a car and paying for registration fees and fuel, so free2go helps often cash-strapped young drivers with peace of mind. “Year 12 students and 18 year olds who join the free2go program receive free emergency roadside assistance that they can use for any
car they drive or are a passenger in. “In addition, young drivers aged 19 and 20 years who sign up for free2go receive emergency roadside assistance for half price on a nominated vehicle.” All free2go participants become RACV members and receive the extensive benefits on offer to members, including discounts across RACV‘s diverse range of products and services. “This highly successful program is yet another way in which provides benefits to its members. “Young drivers need trusted support when starting out on our roads and in addition to roadside assistance, they can access professional advice about obtaining a licence and buying a vehicle,” Mr Oakley said. RACV’s free2go team provide information about the program at many events including university and TAFE orientation weeks, career expos and young driver information evenings. In 2011, the team attended more than 200 schools and events in metropolitan and regional Victoria. For more information about RACV’s free2go program, call 13 72 28 or visit free2go. racv.com.au.
