If you intend to travel by car on the continent, whether it’s for a business trip to Germany or a booze cruise to France, European cover could prove to be a prudent financial investment. Expenses incurred through breakdowns abroad are rarely covered by car insurance, travel insurance or standard breakdown cover policies and can be very costly – repatriation costs for your vehicle alone can run into thousands of pounds.
European breakdown cover policies are available from a number providers, most are stand-alone products, while others can be included as an add-on to standard annual policies. They offer full roadside and recovery assistance via English-speaking staff in each country which makes dealing with a breakdown abroad much quicker and less complicated. However, European breakdown cover can double your premium so think hard about whether you will really need it on an annual policy.
