How RescueMyCar cover works
Policies are sold online for cars, vans and motorcycles, in tiers from roadside through to recovery, home start and onward travel, with European cover available. Historically the headline price was kept low by charging an excess per call-out; the current structure may include both excess and no-excess options, so check which you are buying.
What stands out
- Among the lowest annual prices on the market for nominal cover.
- Covers vans and motorbikes, which many budget brands exclude.
- Simple online purchase.
Where it falls down
A call-out excess changes the maths: if you break down twice in a year, a conventional policy may be cheaper. Service is through a contractor network and experiences vary by area. Vehicle age caps and call-out limits apply.
Who it suits
Low-mileage drivers who want cover for the rare emergency and are happy to pay a fee if they use it. Van and bike owners priced out of the bigger names. Not the right choice for a car that breaks down regularly.
