Breakdown cover
All,
Just bought first Alfa - 1999(t) 1.8 TS Lusso. I am sorting things like insurance and breakdown cover. For the latter, can any recommend either of the main 3 - RAC, AA, GreenFlag ?? Are any better with Alfas than the others ?? Greenflag is the cheapest so the obvious choice, but cheap aint always best..... |

I used National Breakdown / Green Flag for years and on four occasions that I needed them they were great. Plus I liked the fact that the car was covered and not the driver, so who ever was driving it didn't matter. When I bought my Alfa it came with 3 years AA free, so I cancelled my GreenFlag cover. I have never needed to test the AA response <G> One could infer that as all Alfa's come with AA cover, they should know how to fix one. On the other hand...... <LOL> Pete -- > 156 2.0 TS (2001) - Proteo Rosso (his) 147 2.0 TS (2002) - Gem Green (her's) |

Heard good things about GreenFlag and they are the cheapest. Looks like they'll be getting my cash. On another note - I have found insurance unbelievable ! Used confused.com to get quotes - cheapets is Admiral with £600, but the most expensive is £1700 !! The range is crazy! Tries Chris Knott too, best they could do it £800.. |

Tries Chris Knott too, best >they could do it £800.. YMMV - age, location, etc., will make a huge difference to mine :-) £360 fully comp, protected no-claims.
