AA Europe Breakdown Cover

Dealing with a breakdown in any situation can be stressful, but it's much more stressful when you're trying to deal with a breakdown in a foreign country and in a foreign language; those unfortunate enough to have had the experience will no doubt recall the memory with some amount of pain.

However, while AA Europe Breakdown Cover doesn't perform miracles, it's a pretty useful service to be able to avail oneself of in the event of a breakdown, providing not only the technical expertise to liase with foreign recovery services where necessary, but also translation services too.

AA Europe Breakdown Cover isn't quite the same as AA Breakdown though, not least because AA Patrols don't usually operate outside of the UK, but help is still just a telephone call away, and instead of a familiar yellow AA van turning up, AA will arrange assistance from a local motoring organisation or garage instead.

In fact AA Europe Breakdown Cover offer three different levels of cover, according to your needs: Short Break Cover; Lite Cover; and Full Cover. For full details of what is covered with each level of breakdown cover you should refer to the AA Europe Breakdown Cover website; but, essentially, the following options are available within these three levels of breakdown cover:

* claim limits from £300 up to £6,000
* 24-hour English-speaking helpline and language translation service
* Roadside assistance and emergency repairs
* Location and despatch of spare parts
* Vehicle recovery to the UK or - if it's cheaper - onwards to your original destination
* Cover for trailers
* Alternative travel and accommodation
* Up to £50,000 of legal protection

And, when you're ready to sign up, there's no waiting around for documents to arrive in the post - your AA Europe Breakdown Cover can begin right away, as soon as you sign up online.

If you have ever needed to make use of your AA Breakdown Service in the UK, then you'll know just what a life-saver it can; offering roadside cover in any car; national recovery; and onward travel to your destination, most people wouldn't even think of not having at least some form of breakdown cover. Well, AA Europe Breakdown Cover can now help you out if you happen to be travelling in Europe.

Amongst other benefits, AA Europe Breakdown Cover provides cover for vehicles of any age and offers roadside assistance or towing to the nearest garage after a breakdown or accident; AA Europe Breakdown Cover also provides for recovery of your vehicle back to the UK or onwards to your destination.

Handily, AA Europe Breakdown Cover is also available for just the outbound part of your trip if you don't plan to return to the UK within thirty-one days.

Also, if you have already begun your trip, but you happen to have forgotten to purchase AA Europe Breakdown Cover, and you're still in the UK, then you can still buy AA Europe Breakdown Cover by telephone or from the AA shops at Dover or Folkestone.
