Interested to hear who people are using for this and how much it costs for these older cars? I insure my car with saga and I am adding European breakdown/recovery to my policy which will increase the price by about £50 but this gives me a full years cover as opposed to a one trip cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And have the tyre pump where it's handy to get at rather than have to unload all the luggage at the side of a motorway to get to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some say that if the repair or repatriation exceed a certain amount or a certain percentage of the value of the car then they will not repatriate the car.

You don't really get a choice. If Euro4 was the applicable standard in 2001, that's the only one the form will accept for that year, regardless of actual emissions.
