    It was :)

    I traded my 2.5 year old Yaris in two months ago for an Auris.

    Probably not Relay either though, so if it's not fixable at the roadside they'll only take you to the nearest garage, not to wherever you specify.

    Relay would be a must for me.

    Sounds like a really good deal to me... apart from the relay recovery part. That is a bummer!

    I just wanted to find out whether all new car owners have one? What to do if you do not have one and your car is broken down?

    Well if you break down on the motorway without it, the Police will call a recovery company who will charge you £150. That £150 gets you towed off the motorway, not to a garage or back home.

    Renew, for £59 it sounds a really good deal.
