I think that is an excellent idea. Everything is converging toward english in economics, but a foreign language is always an advantage. It is also well regarded at graduate school if you know more than your own language.
I am double majoring in Econ and French with a Math minor. So I definitely believe that the foreign language part is important, plus my native tongue is german.
BTW - you're so lucky in the UK. You get to see Top Gear and Fifth Gear. Some of the coolest car shows and Jeremy Clarkson and Hamster are hillarious.
