Covers me whatever I'm driving or riding throughout Europe

I agree - ADAC - not worth even considering anything else.

€79 a year for full cover and works everywhere - including UK.

Best value is German ADAC PlusMembership EU-wide cover (€79.50, unfortunately can't apply online due to UK address format).

Unless you can get something similar through your car insurance company for £5-£7 a month.

I'm a member of ADAC, never had the need to use them though. Seems good value for money. Would be polite to tell anyone using your introduce a friend application form that you'll get a shopping voucher for 35 euro though, (your membership number of 369144359 is in there at the bottom to ensure it gets to you) Otherwise it could seem to be a bit of undeclared self interest.

Sorry, not mine.

Anyway, there is also a telephone number to ring in Germany (they do speak good English): +49 (0)800 5 10 11 12

I travel around Europe twice a year (this is my 3rd year of membership), but used them only once here in the UK actually.

UK calls go to their ADAC and the AA joint "European operations" office in France. The AA van arrived within 30 minutes (flat battery).

Just be aware of their €200 roadside repair/towing "limit", and ongoing membership (unless cancelled 4 months before the end). And they don't automatically charge your credit card to renew, they just invoice you.
