Hi Folks

I have been with the RAC for several years and the premium for this year has gone up to £215.

This covers 2 people which includes the following benefits:

Legal cover, Roadside assistance, At Home assistance, Recovery, Onward Travel, Courtesy Car, Battery Replacement, Tyre Replacement, Key replacement, European Breakdown.

Do you think this is a fair price compared to the benefits or should I go elsewhere?

Thanks in advance.

    2 people as in 2 vehicles or just one vehicle?

    I used to get the RAC full cover AND cover for a caravan for £130.  That would cover the caravan breaking down
    which a standard policy would not. If either breaks down then they would take me to the campsite or home and
    even take the caravan to the storage yard if required so a far more costly policy than a standard car.
    They wanted £200+ and would only drop it to £160 so I moved to GreenFlag for the same cover and paid £130.


    So with that in mind your policy maybe expensive, but we don't know what your actually covering, one or two cars?
