Choose from four levels of RAC breakdown cover: Roadside Only, Roadside & Recovery, Roadside, Recovery & At Home, and Roadside, Recovery & At Home & European.
Roadside Only gives you peace of mind if you break down more than a quarter of a mile from home. The RAC will attend and, if your vehicle cannot be repaired at the roadside, you and your passengers will be taken to a destination of your choice within 10 miles.
This level does not include assistance within a quarter of a mile of your home and does not provide cover for vehicles outside the UK.
Includes all the benefits of Roadside Only, plus nationwide recovery. If your vehicle cannot be repaired at the roadside, you, your passengers and your vehicle will be transported to any destination of your choice anywhere in the UK.
This level does not include assistance within a quarter of a mile of your home and does not provide cover for vehicles outside the UK.
Includes all the benefits of Roadside & Recovery, plus cover within a quarter of a mile of your home address.
This level does not provide assistance for vehicles outside the UK.
Includes all the benefits of Roadside, Recovery & At Home, plus European Breakdown cover for your vehicle while driving in European countries.
