Breakdown UK/abroad etc

A caravan only policy would help a lot of people although I think you can add a caravan to an RAC cover so I would ring them. Check out the size limits though.

Alan, Ask your two existing breakdown insurers for your car if you can add on caravan breakdown insurance at cost

Failing that take out a freestanding breakdown insurance for the caravan independent of the existing ones for the car. Eurobreakdown.com offers that sort of policy via Allianz and no doubt Google will tell you of others.

As Wildwood says check to see if you can get the caravan added to the policy for which, no doubt, there would be an addition fee. However I would also check all the small print of the policies to actually check what you are covered for. Some breakdown policies have a size limit. Also what happens to the car and caravan if you or one of your party are taken ill  will the unit be repatriated in those circumstances. Its these sorts of worries that make a lot of us take out Red Pennant.

I am like you.  My cover, which came with the car, runs out in a few weeks.  I am going to take out the ADAC cover which will give all you need at a very reasonable cost.

ADAC is  indeed excellent and will, so I believe, cover your caravan when not attached to the car although I've not seen this in their actual wording. It seems to be implied

We faced this problem last year. Now solved. UK breakdown covered by banks agreement with LV=. This includes Abroad for both car and 'van, even when detached. If Accidental Damage occured to'van then Saga Insurance would cover in UK and Abroad AND repatriate 'van, something CC caravan insurance doesn't do (repatriation that is).

One thing to remember about ADAC cover iiis that if you wish to leave at renewal date then you must give them 3 months notice othrwise you'll be stuck with paying for another year.

ADAC covers the individual not the car.  Dianne is our 'expert' on this; if you look at her 'Joys of European Caravanning' it's all there. (Sorry can't do the link!)

Thank you for your ideas and thoughts, that has given me some investigations to do and will look up Dianne link in the 'Joys' link, thanks to all
