im finding it very difficult to find a company that will just take me home if i break down at a cheapish price
i dont want to pay for all those extras because if it breaks down and i cant fix it then no one will so i just want taking home
anyone know any good places that can give me a link to
many thanks mat

never mind sorted swintons seem good

I can recommend GEM - Guild of Experienced Motorists - breakdown/recovery service, having used them a fcouple of times in recent years.

Basically it's a sort of insurance. You pay about £50-60 a year. If you break down, you phone them up and they send out a recovery service from near to wherever you've broken down, then take you and the car to wherever you want - home, garage etc.

You have to pay the recovery driver the fee for getting you home, but then send in a claim form to GEM and within days, they pay you back the money that you spent on the recovery.

You also get a interesting quarterly members magazine and various other membership offers.

They've also featured in various car mags best buys etc.

Pay 'n' claim is usually the cheapest, but not something for the disorganised!
