    See my earlier post - they don't 'advertise' as such either as far as I know.

    The system should work wherever you are!

    I think they are fab. My OH thinks that the big name recovery places are the way to go...but we've been with them for a year and called them out numerous times.
    We have 3 cars and all have been covered...I don't think my OH can quite believe it.
    There are no limits to call outs either. We must have used them about half a dozen times in the last 12 months...

    Thanks for that! Also, will they take you onto your final destination or back home if your vehicle cannot be repaired on the spot?

    EDIT: Just found the answer on another website "Then, unlike other policies that will fix your car at the roadside, AutoAid will infact provide a car that will seat up to six people and transport to the required destination."

    BUT.. you are not covered for parts are you? i am looking for cover for my son and want to make sure that i get the right one, i phoned for a quote and he told me all the bumph and it sounds great, do you pay for your bill at the side of the road and then send them the bill and they deduct the cost of the parts?
