When I was shopping around when my warranty expired, I was amazed at how cheap some companies were, compared to RAC. However, when you looked into the cover, some companies only reimbursed you for any costs, others didn't cover your car in the event of an accident or you were reimbursed upto £250 for accident cover. I pay £92 per year for rescue, recovery and at home for 2 cars and 2 drivers in any vehicle they travel in. Full European cover was £59 extra , thats on a trip upto 28 days. That includes upto £300 in roadside repairs, £40 per day car hire, return to UK and shipping to a dealer of your choice upto the value of your car. Thats peanuts when you consider the cost of recovery off a motorway.
