VW Roadside Assistance

[VB 32]

My ED30 is a year old at end of this month

I had letter from VW to renew VW roadside assistance for £89 for 1 year or £145 for 2 years

is this a good deal or have people got better price?

im sure on my Mk4 R32 2003 - it came with 3 years roadside assistance as standard from VW

any help apreciated

all new vw get 1 years free RSA.. i think its only touaregs that get 3 years..

im not sure if thats a good deal.. id shop elsewhere first and see what you find.

Always shop around!
I havent had much luck with the VWRA, everytime I rang up when I needed them they didnt have a record of me! (3 Times I had issues with them)

Some tell me more about this RSA please!
My car is 8 months old - so do I automatically have it, or do I need to register etc?
In emergency, who do you call, and what is the quality of service like??

On mine the RSA number is on the Tax Disk holder

if your car is brand new.. and automaticaly have VW RSA for one year..
like above, the phone number will be on the back of your tax disc holder.

if your not sure, give your selling dealer a call.

that seems like quite a good offer... I would take the 2yrs cover

Not quite for free, they charge between £7 and £25 approx for these accounts.
