Breakdown
cover
Unlike some other breakdown service providers, we do not charge a flat rate. We take into account your unique set of circumstances and calculate a premium according to who you are.
This way, you will only pay for the service which you are likely to need. We also provide a range of roadside assistance options that vary in cost (depending on your individual circumstances and cover chosen).
Our breakdown cover is competitively priced. The following table shows a comparison against other providers:
| Provider: | Prices |
|---|---|
| NU Rescue - Rescue, recovery, At Home and Onward Travel | £67.99 |
| Direct Line Recovery Plus | £76.65 |
| The AA | £137.60 |
Prices based on a 50 year old male living in Hinckley, Leics (LE10 1BZ) driving a 2003 1.6 Astra LS 16v doing 8000 miles a year. Prices correct as at 29th January 2008, source www.directline.com, and www.theaa.com.
