European Breakdown Cover

Please be advised that ADAC may not recover your camper to UK. They will decide what it is worth and if it isn't worth more then the cost of shipping it back won't pay and want to scrape the camper. The evaluation is what they say it is and that's that. Have seen this happen with a VW T25 camper that had gearbox problems in France last fall. Owner of camper had to find and pay for return to UK as parts and labor were many times higher there then here. ADAC evaluated his camper at about 1/3 of value here in UK.

That said, we have ADAC and plan to keep it... just don't count on them getting van home if we have a serious problem.
 
ADAC dose look a good bet seeing it includes some sort of medical cover
thanks for the advice
 
We use NFU at £35 for 17 days. Cheaper if van is under 10yrs old, ours is 16,

Hi Everyone,
We are going to France in July for 3 weeks and would be grateful to anyone who could provide me with a Company for European Breakdown Cover. The biggies are far too expensive.

Hi Gwyneth,

We have been abroad a few times in our campervan and last yr took out comprehensive cover with the RAC for £174. This is for one years cover, as long as you're only in europe for no more than 90 days in total. That covers you for any EU state too in case you fancied going further afield at any time.

Hope this is useful to you.

Try Britannia Rescue £125 covers all my cars (4)and Motorhome in UK and Europe. They get you home or 2 nights in hotel while being fixed,if you are abroad for more than 90 days at a time will need a call
 
breakdown cover

It was pretty interesting to have an insurance in Ireland, It was a car breakdown cover, On the same day when I bought the insurance, my car had stuck and got a major accident, they denied my claim, It was the scene of the bad customer relation which became the tradition of English counties !!!
 
If your van is over ten years old you may find that people like green flag want a pretty swingeing extra payment to cover european recovery. I was quoted over £130 over and above my comprehensive subscription for just three weeks in southern Ireland in June this year................and that was with a 10% discount.
 
dont worry get it fixed where its broken down. they fix vehicles in ever country. very often cheaper than here.
