Cheapest Deal on Breakdown Cover

Can any advise of any cheapish Breakdown cover organisations that will cover my situation? I am currently with Green Flag and the renewal is up and I wonder if I could be doing better. Basically I would need cover for three vehicles but unfortunately one of these is a 2.5 Transit van. It is "personally" registered but used for work by a self-employed person. We also have an 08 Focus and an 05 KA. In my experience some people do not like to provide cover for the van and even the quotes I got last year on a "person bases" rather than restricted vehicles would not have covered this is myself or my husband were travelling in it. Any advice welcome - thanks in advance

  • The AA have come out to me for allsorts, including a transit sized van (VW Caravelle/Transporter in my case) and a Bedford TK (7.5t lorry), although it's been a decade or so since I've called them from anything other than a car.

    They are not the cheapest by any means, but since I have vehicles that are 27 ,43 and 46 years old a lot of the others aren't interested as they restrice the age of the cars they will cover. Even my sensible everyday car is 14 years old which rules out a lot.

    They did say they couldn't provide a relay service for the lorry if they couldn't fix it at the roadside, but the van didn't concern them on that score.
