    You get cover with Nationwide current account, £10 per month.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    Breakdown cover is usually yearly.

    You can ignore this.


    RAC, Green Flag and numerous others do temporary cover from one day and upwards.


    Although typically 5 weeks is the maximum before they expect you to take out an annual policy.


    You can find a list here

    However, when you consider that you can get yearly cover for around £40, that is better value than a week of temporary cover.
