Winter breakdown cover
Dear Chris,
We are looking for European breakdown cover to insure our car and our motorcycles. Is it possible to get this type of group insurance?

Personal breakdown cover is the best option for you.
That’s because personal breakdown cover provides breakdown protection to the driver - irrespective of what type of vehicle they’re driving - though most packages are predominantly concerned with car and motorcycle breakdown cover.
Most breakdown providers - such as the AA and RAC - offer specialised European breakdown packages to cover you, another driver and passengers for an entire year of foreign travel. Short-term European breakdown cover is also available - handy if you’re only abroad for a few days or weeks.
Always compare the various European breakdown packages to ensure you get the best deal for your needs. For example, it’s worth checking exactly which European countries are included in your deal.

What do European breakdown packages cover?
If your vehicle does breakdown in Europe, your European breakdown provider should have English-speaking telephone operators, making it simple to get a recovery truck and skilled mechanic to your location.
The other benefits of European breakdown cover include:
- A European-wide network of mechanics
- Onward travel reimbursement
- Long-distance recovery
- Cover for passengers or other drivers.
