At any given time we  can all be carrying around £3/4 grand of kit in our vechiles so we would not want to leave our vechile unattended in case of breakdown with this in mind are we all covered by AA/RAC??

rac

[martinsadie]

cant remember which one 

[thewaterwizard]

yes rac

[dave.e]

Rac here to

[leapstallbuildings]

I'm with RAC apparently but it's only via my insurance broker (CVD) so I imagine it's pretty basic cover.  Must read those T & Cs sometime.

RAC

Now the usual Malcgold windbag in depth answer :-

I got RAC thru' my broker for the family car then my van had a years AA from new. Then a motorbike had cover from new and another motorbike had broker cover.

As the new vehicles got to one year old they needed cover and the RAC offered cover for the person - whichever vehicle they are in as opposed to one vehicle.

So we have

1 van
1 family car
1 small car (daughter)
2 motorbikes

And me and my family are covered which ever vehicle they are driving or are a passenger in/on including other peoples. So if my youngest two (non-drivers) are in other peoples' vehicles they are covered.

Cheaper for us. The breakeven point comes at vehicle two/three. So that family cover is about £140 for five whereas £130 would cover two cars/vans/motorbikes.

AA, bah hum bug as the aa man came out for home start and took out my glow plugs to test them and cross threaded them when put bag and needed a new head on engine, car off road for 6 weeks, they fixed in the end but worst company ever dealt with for claims. im givin rac a shot next time

[AJ]

AA, but may change as the price has doubled since last year

[trevor povey]

.......just wondering the lads that have said they don,t have AA/RAC cover are you traditonal or do you have a full wfp set up in your van???

[DaveG]

I get AA cover through my bank ...covers any vehicle im in

[Captain Scarlet]

i dont quite understand why anybody wouldnt have cover, its only cheap, and when you really need it you will kick yourself

AA

When the propshaft bearing went on my van on the M20, they got me home in good time. They had to call out a second vehicle, cos i couldn't be towed.
And I'm covered for the car too. Though at £90 it's a bit steep. But to get towed off the motorway costs a couple of 100!

Sign up through quidco though and you would get £40.00 back. The £90.00 becomes £50.00.
