European breakdown cover

[Geek]

Nationwide flexplus cover at £18 per month is the whole lot, UK and EU. If it is a joint account, both account holders get personal cover.

When you get a Breakdown Policy, it is important to read the policy and not assume becuase you were not asked about something, that 'something' does not matter.

Ref the vehicles covered ....

First bit of relevance says:

any mechanically propelled vehicle, registered in the UK, that requires insurance for use on the public highway as specified under the Road Traffic Act 1988 and does not exceed any of the following dimensions when fully loaded: ​

• Caravans and trailers - 8 metres in length (including A-frame). ​

• Motorhomes - 8 metres in length or 7.5 tonnes in weight. ​

• All other vehicles - 7 metres in length, 2.3 metres in width, 3 metres in height or 3.5 tonnes in weight. ​

All vehicles must also meet the criteria specified in Section B – Vehicles.​

Ok, so Heavier Motorhomes are covered. Result But don't forget to check the caveat in "Section B - Vehicles" ....

Motorhomes – must be a recognised make and model which has been coachbuilt for that precise purpose.​

So if you have a self-build that is over 3.5t, you are not covered at all. So watch out if you got it uprated to 3700Kg or 3850Kg for extra payload

I forgot you can get a discount if you've ever worked for the government in any capacity for any amount of time, I worked for Royal Mail for a week, it counted but they didn't check.
