ufop Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Does anyone know if the RAC breakdown cover has a age limit on the cars they will cover? I know from reading the small print the green flag is 16 years but can't seem to find one for RAC :-0 I'd rather go with the RAC as because if you go with solution 3 or 4 and do it via quid co then they will give £40 back which means its not too bad really. what with doing more miles now im thinking that if I do break down then the cost of one tow truck home or something means the cover would have paid for its self (although touch wood I dont break down lol) thanks if anyone can answer this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordy07 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Thats a new one to me i thought they covered any age? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ufop Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 From Green Flags T&C's "Please remember This level of cover may only be taken where the vehicle to be covered is less than 16 years of age." I know they seem to do fair usage on call outs and discounts if you dont call but sees RAC through quid co is the best and just forget about the 10% discount if you dont call them out lol just dont want to call them out some time and they look and say "sorry mate its 1 year too old" or some other such **** lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ufop Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 and the AA "where only Roadside Assistance is held, the vehicle must be no more than 10 (ten) years old at the date of registration with the AA" hope this info might help some other out too :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wile e coyote Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Rac : Your question Does the age of my car matter? Your answer For UK Breakdown cover, there is no age limit on the vehicles we cover. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_si Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 i brought this up with the AA at renewal time too, My policy covers the person who took oiut the poilcy unless you are specifically covering your car. It should not matter what age your car is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
