Looking for a breakdown cover for my girlfriends 1994 1.2 corsa swing.

I would like a breakdown cover that will pick her up anywhere in the uk (preferebly) and take her and the car HOME. Not to a local garage where she has broken down.

Also i would not need home start.


Most breakdown covers only offer the option of if you breakdown they will take you home BUT they will take your car to a local garage to where you break down and i want them to take the car home.

Give me ideas please of some good companies to go with!

Cheers everyone!

BTW need this cover by thursday as shes off on a 200 mile trip :lol:

    I'm with AutoAid which is mentioned somewhere on here by Martin but I can't remember where. I haven't used them yet (no need thankfully) but the idea is I pay for whichever recovery I need and then invoice Autoaid for the amount. It cost £29 per year and works out much cheaper than if I have full cover with Rac/AA and never need them.
    My mind not only wanders .......... sometimes it leaves completely

    Am also paying around £29, with GEM, you pay up front for repairs then claim back, hopefully never will fnd out how good they are!
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
