single trip European breakdown cover

[Mark-J]

We're off to the VW meet in Holland in a few weeks time and I'm looking for a single trip European breakdown cover, anybody got any advice? I'm already in the RAC for my normal car and was wondering if there were any better deals around for a short trip just to cover the van? RAC have been brilliant in general, just wondering if there were any good alternatives for European cover just for the van? The insurance runs out in August, wondering if it may be cheaper just to do it all in one with the policy or whether to just extend the RAC for the 5day trip (£58)

thanks
Mark

If you take out insurance with RH it comes with european recovery and repatriation as part of their policys.

Only had to use their recovery service once and it was fast and efficient - give them a bell 8)

I use Norton Heritage Classic Insurance for single trip breakdown cover.

You won't see it on their website, but give them a call. From memory, it costs about £35 for a few days cover.

cheers Mark

Ive never had to actually 'use' them but the cover always seemed a good price The only thing that annoyed me was them constantly ringing me during the trip offering other insurances ... not what you want when roaming charges apply! :lol:
