Comes as part of my insurance with Hagerty. Seems pretty good service, they rescued me when one of my propshaft UJ's gave up the ghost on a trip out a year or so back.

I'm with the AA, have been with them 30+ years, I've had to call them out for the Charger twice and never been a problem getting me home, once was on the way home from the MEC when I thought a core plug had let go but on closer inspection once home it was an exhaust bolt.
Are we there yet dad ..... 10 to the gallon but worth it.

Cover for you in any car with home start national, breakdown and recovery will probably be about £130, go to their website and give them a try.

I insured my barracuda with BRENTACRE for a very reasonable price, agreed value, and breakdown cover was £25 annually, recovery included.

Got mine covered on insurance with RH, but also worth checking if your bank covers you, a lot do, although some have size restrictions.

Like Derek , am with the AA , the rear occasions I have had to use them they always come up trumps , saying that I have heard some stories when things have not gone smoothly , but guess you can say that about any of the breakdown services .

AA here too, not the cheapest I'm sure but they've got me home quickly several times over the years when I've had an issue I couldn't fix, including when I broke up at Shakey. It also covers you for any vehicle you are in including as a passenger, not sure cheaper options give you that and yes I have needed to use it.

AA through the bank and have used them a few times always very good and quick service.

Also have it with RH insurance, but have not needed to use them as AA has been good.
