I think for any level of sensible access and cover, you will be paying around that.

I pay 60 quid to Green Flag.. and having used the others, can honestly say that their service has been by far the best.

Hi wibble,
is your insurance up for renewal soon as quite a few companies now offer breakdown cover as well.

Mine with Lancaster was about £40. Still have AA cover which I'll be cancelling as they want £48 just for roadside cover. :evil:
Cheers.

Mine is included with my Insurance cover at the princely sum of £20.00 I think.......

Not tried it out as yet (only because I can normally bodge it myself and drive it home though!)

You can guarantee their is a clause in the cover somewhere about a V8 Series 3 stuck up tit's windscreen in a bog not being covered  :lol:

cheers folks, insurance not for a while, but with NFU who are pretty good so may try that next year, will prob suck and see for now. it would appear that there is'nt a huge market of recovery companies out there that are a national bod. bit of a gap in the market for those out there that are inclined :roll:  :roll: expensive stuff tho, if any one opens their own company on the strength of the above suggestion don't forget me! :!: lol :(biglaugh):
