• Honda Shuttle (1999) - European Breakdown cover for older cars 17 Aug 2016 (Forum)
  Now the Shuttle is more than 16 years old we are being refused breakdown cover for our holiday in Germany/Poland. Although I have every confidence the car won't let us down, we need to have some peace of mind. Can anyone recommend a European breakdown service for older/classic cars??
• What`s your risk assessment on breakdown? 12 Apr 2008 (Forum)
  Then time moves on, the big tool box now out of the car and an AA card carried. That seems a great deal in particular if swapping every year to get a new customer discount. But has anyone done a risk assessment on their current car? the outcome perhaps being a relatively cheap part or two carried, that could then be made available to the breakdown service if a weekend breakdown occurs.

• Car Breakdown cover via Bank 30 Dec 2017 (Forum)
  I have car breakdown with Barclays, but I was thinking of switching to Nationwide Building Society. I think the Barclays one is with RAC. But I have not used the service.  I am thinking of switching to Nationwide Building Society, but their car breakdown is with Liverpool Victoria and they use a company called Britannia Rescue.
• Breakdown cover recommendation 5 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  I know this is a well-worn path, but my breakdown cover is up for renewal. I'm currently with 'Autonational Rescue' and cover for two cars is about £85 PA. Checked with 'breakdown-direct' (link on right of page) and they quote about the same (for b/down and recovery, but excluding homestart).

• ADAC breakdown results 10 Jun 2001 (Forum)

• Time to renew breakdown cover 1 Apr 2014 (Forum)
  Currently with the AA but notice a lot of cheaper seemingly good providers such as 'start rescue', 'QDOS', 'Driverguardian' The only reason i'm thinking of sticking to the AA is because of their 'breakdown repair cover'  My car broke doen 2 months ago and an ignition coil was replaced free as I was on that policy. Nobody else seems to offer that sort of thing. For those interested in the breakdown repair cover, the things covered and excuded are here:  http://www.theaa.com/breakdown-cover/breakdown-repair-cover.jsp#tabview%3Dtab2   Should I stick to the AA or cn anyone recommend me a cheaper alternative just as good?

• Breakdown cover and pets 12 Sep 2020 (Forum)
  Most of my car journeys are very local so (touch wood) if I ever needed to make use of breakdown cover, recovery and getting home would never be an issue. However, most longer journeys (holidays, visiting family etc) have an extra 2 passengers, our 2 dogs.
