Roadside Assistance
« on: 04 June 2018, 16:26 »
So a year of ownership is upon me & I get the invite to renew my Roadside assistance.
On the website 2 years continuous for £145 all in.
Not looked at others yet BUT I didn't like AA years ago.
Anyone gone with this or other options please

I'd try compare the market or one of the other comparison sites, but £145 for two years doesn't seem too bad...

I'm paying £32 a year through Kwik Fit Ins for my cover.Home Start,Relay the lot.Never needed it yet but were fine with my previous car when they came out for a flat battery.A car insurance 'bolt -on' is a good idea.

Could never understand why Audi, Seat and Skoda all give you 3 years breakdown cover, but VW only see fit to give a miserly 1 year ?

I was pleasantly surprised to get 3 years AA cover when getting my A4.

Anyone know what they get in rest of Europe by way of comparison.
