Vehicle breakdown cover is typically our most affordable level of cover and provides protection for the vehicle, rather than the driver. This type of breakdown cover is ideal for:
- If you only travel frequently in one vehicle – this can be more cost-effective than other levels of cover
- If you’re part of a family or household that shares one vehicle between multiple people
You can also get cover for your motorbike, and scooter and moped breakdown cover.
Personal breakdown cover protects a named person instead of a specific car. The policy holder is covered if the car they’re driving breaks down but also if they’re a passenger in another car, driven by someone else. This type of policy is perfect for:
- People who regularly drive more than one vehicle
- People that frequently travel as passengers in someone else’s vehicle

Deals on family breakdown cover
Family breakdown cover is a cost-effective way to cover multiple people you live with on a single policy. Depending on the level of cover you choose, it may be cheaper to choose our family breakdown cover, which covers up to 5 people in one household.
