Breakdown cover..any suggestions which is best?

[Mr Blue]

I used my Lloyds account for the breakdown cover. Worked out cheaper for me and the AA gets called out a lot due to being a vw

My brother recommended The Green Insurance Company for breakdown.
It's damn cheap that's for sure.

Even their full European cover is less than £60 for the year on my car, including home start, roadside repairs and recovery to destination.

I was with the RAC for the past few years but their price just kept going up well over the £100 mark.

Im with the AA. I pay less than £25 a month, for that i get roadside recovery, relay (they take me and the car anywhere i want in mainland britan) these are available to me on any car i am in, doesnt even need to belong to me. the feature i like the best is the breakdown repair cover. Up to 6 times a year on my megane they will pay up to £500 of parts and/or labour. (I pay my £25 excess then anything over the £500 that they pay!) They are very helpful, very polite and i would seriously reccomend!

How much? 

I pay for mine through the insurance company, full care for about £40 a year!

The benefit there is that they can use who ever is in your area. With the AA or RAC, you'll just get those, when they turn up. I've been with the RAC, useless plonkers who haven't a clue.

Me too. It's so much better. I pay £3 more a month for my bank account than I did with the RAC, but I get AA breakdown cover, mobile phone insurance and worldwide travel cover as well as a few other account benefits.

I get it through Barclays along with a load of other things for £15 a month for both me & the missus.

We both get RAC cover that includes roadside assistance, recovery, onward travel, home start and even European cover.

Try ADAC. They're german but you get Europe wide cover. Myself and my OH use them. We haven't had to call on them but my parents who have an aged campervan they take an Europe wide trips have called them out a couple of times and they have been faultless.

You also get a lovely magazine every month that you can't read because it's in German
