Volcanic ash, BA Strikes, cost of the Euro, all of these are factors which mean that more holidymakers are looking to take their cars with them on holiday this year and this is putting a heavy demand on the Cross Channel services.
Holiday makers choosing to drive abroad this summer need to be prepared for all eventualities and this includes ensuring they have good coverage for both vehicle breakdowns and accidents. These types of incident are stressful enough when you breakdown close to home but when you potentially are over a thousand miles away then the stress levels can be through the roof. The team at European Breakdown Cover always advise that you dont skimp on cover and ensure that you have a policy which covers vehicle repatraition, replacement car hire, replacement driver and overnight accommodation if needs be as an absolute must. European Breakdown Cover is not one of those items that can be forgotten, there are no back ups such as the EHIC medical card which could be used in a medical emergency in place of travel insurance. If it all goes wrong you really are stranded and looking at bills into the hundreds of pounds.
