I paid Green Flag/May Day £145 last Sept, that includes recovery from home to a garage and  also recovery to home and taking my caravan elsewhere ie storage yard if needed. If I can't tow due to illness, I'd get a chauffeur driver cos SWMBO wouldn't tow.

I just paid that pikey mob thats Albs recommended a couple of years back.  Premium gone up to £97 as one of mine is now over 15 years old (or will do in the coming year), so there is an additional premium.

Thats for 2 people cover, not tied to any car, with nationwide recovery.

My cover is for me in any car and up to 7 people recovered.  The garage cover is tied to the car.

But happy basically the same price price overall for £1 a month extra rather than a one off payment.

The milk flat has something called Jaguar assist, which I'm informed is similar to AA/RAC.

The M240i has the BMW version  of this.

This all stops 3 years from date of registration.

I'd probably try Green Flag or similar in future as I have been underwhelmed by both the AA and RAC in the past.
