ADAC breakdown cover for an older car in Europe?

[A900ss]

Hi,

I can’t speak/read German but have been recommend ADAC breakdown cover.

I am looking for cover for myself and my wife. My car is 16 years old and I can’t read T’s and C’s to see what is covered in the ADAC Plus-Membership for 109 euros. I also would like to know the geographical limits as I want cover in UK, DE and FR.

Is it recovery to home address even if in FR/DE (I live in UK)?
Does it include homestart?

Many thanks

Either call and ask them - they all speak English - or use an online translator.

All of the EU
All non-EU countries in geographical Europe
Any non-European countries with a Mediterranean shore.

Yes, but not in quite the same way as the AA etc do "recovery". If you break down, you get an "allowance" for towing cost. If you live within that radius, you can get towed home. If not, you get an overnight per diem/hire car for up to three days whilst your car's fixed locally. If it's not fixed in that time, then you get taken home from WHEREVER in that coverage area you are, and the car follows along later - providing the recovery isn't more than the car's worth.

Yes.
