Roadside assistance, rescue and recovery. UK and European are all available Our service also allows you to tailor the insurance to your particular needs in seconds.
All the policies offered through the panel of insurers we partner with include Roadside Assistance, so that your vehicle will be repaired at the roadside if at all possible. Local Recovery is also an option, meaning that if a roadside repair isn't possible, your vehicle will be towed to a nearby garage or your home address.
The car breakdown service allows you to compare policies at a glance to see which is most appropriate for you. You can select to filter your options and display policies that include particular features such as Home start, European cover, ongoing assistance with alternative travel, Car Hire or Hotel accommodation while your car is being repaired or if the insurer offers it, a relief driver if the main driver is taken ill. Prices start from as little as 15.49 per year*
Policies will offer either cover for the vehicle or the person, so select the type that better suits your requirements. If you have just one vehicle but more than one driver in the household, vehicle cover is likely to be better for you but, if you use a number of different vehicles, you will probably find personal cover is preferable.
