go here, look for the policy from Green Flag. Ignore the stupidly cheap prices above it in the list. Annual Euro for about £60 a year. There's an age limit.

Another one for green flag. Got my 2006 BMW 525 and my 2007 1200gs both with them.

All the recovery / roadside assistance companies are good, until that is, they are not.

I have had good experiences with BMW’s branded assistance, operated (at the time) by Axa. Others swear it is shite. Hey-ho, that’s life.

Don’t forget that, if you are hooning / bimbling outside of the safety of the UK, the chances are that you won’t be ‘serviced’ by a Green Flag branded truck and smiling man. You’ll probably get Luigi, or Cédric or Manuel or Spiros, with his greasy low loader and remarkable lack of English. If this troubles you, stay within 10 miles of your front door and SWMBO’s / mum’s apron strings.

Decided to stay with the AA had a look at green flag and the price for the same cover was £12 dearer so I’ll stay with the AA .thanks for the suggestions though .

Green Flag is expensive if you go direct and buy the bells & whistles policy with added benefits that you are unlikely to need and may have cover for in other ways. If you buy the policy via comparison site as I suggested then you get everything you need for European breakdown at a price that is difficult to beat in terms of cost and reputation of the provider.
