I had the need to use my European breakdown cover in October while returning from Andorra, I broke down near Malbet, I took out roadside assistance with Adrian Flux, what I thought was a good policy wasn't.
I wasn't told that the policy only covered £3000 which was not enough cover.
They acted quickly and were helpful, but, if you need to continue your journey, the costs start adding up and in the end there will be no money left to transport your car.
I chose to hitch a lift home and then the £3000 cover was used to transport the vehicle back home 3 weeks later.
My advice is make sure you have enough cover, also they won't pick your car up if your on a motorway you have to call the cops or limp off at the next junction which I did 20 miles later, good luck
