Van Hire - No European breakdown cover!?

[Pitre]

So I need to hire a van to get stuff from France to bring to the UK. However, the hirer does not offer European (i.e. non UK) breakdown insurance although they are happy for the van to be taken to France and it will be insured.

I've broken down in France before and it's not a great experience. Single trip breakdown insurance seems to require that you own the van, which I won't as it's hired. So does anyone know how/where I can get the breakdown insurance I need?
