04 April 2007 Breakdown cover 'needed for Easter breaks to Europe'
Britons heading to Europe by car this bank holiday should ensure they have comprehensive breakdown cover, according to new advice.
Price comparison website moneysupermarket.com has suggested that motorists planning to drive in Europe should invest in breakdown cover.
With roadside assistance starting from £31 a year, British travellers on all budgets should be able to finance cover, said Richard Mason the firm's director of insurance.
He warned: "UK breakdown policies do not automatically provide cover for driving abroad so those planning to cross the channel or venture further afield should check they have the appropriate cover.
"After all, the last thing you want is to stump up an exorbitant call-out fee or organise your own recovery service while stranded abroad."
