Euro breakdown cover

Does anyone have any pointers for good value European breakdown cover? This is for our other car, so the non-Landy. 3 week trip to France. The AA want over £100, which seems a bit steep seeing as I'm already a member. Car is an 04-plate Golf, and the age is obviously going to put the price up, but still.

Seem to remember getting a cheap deal when we went touring in the old 90, but I can't for the life of me remember who it was we went with

Sorry not much help with the info your interested in but why would age put up breakdown cover costs? $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

They presume that older cars are more likely to break down, hence the premium goes up. Depends on provider, but I think the AA charge a supplement for any car over 6 years old (so either of ours then).

Oh I see what you mean now vehicle age. I was thinking there you meant driver age with the policy. I thought not another excuse.

I too have the AA but you are right and mines expensive and that's for a Puma
