Can you suggest a breakdown cover?

Hello there,

I would like to obtain breakdown cover for my 2006 E61 so that I am not left stranded in the event of an accident.

Does anyone have any suggestions for reliable breakdown services?

I am grateful.

Going on a comparison site, you can choose the coverage you need for both vehicles for less than £45 each. I've used it twice in the past 18 months, including the time I had to drive my M4 22 miles away from home to get it serviced. and once, when my son's Nissan Juke wouldn't start—the problem was a loose battery connection.Mine covers everything from getting home to continuing onwards travel, the only thing missing is Euro travel, so it's not even close. It also doesn't limit you to just cars, but any driver.

Take note that they insure vehicles that old.
My car wasn't even covered when I had one a few years ago; I didn't find out about it until it was time to renew, but they had already taken my money the year before and the year after that.

Attached to my 2009 E90 is 2gether. I used them in February when I was driving home after a flat tyre in a rural area. You may still have to wait up to four hours, or even longer, for a recovery, even though they use local garages. Aside from that, I thought they were decent. If you experience a breakdown and they are able to recover it, but you experience another breakdown within three months, you will be required to provide proof that the remedial work was done or pay a recovery charge, according to their contract.
