Need a bit more info. Is this for a single trip or year round?

I used www.comparebreakdowncover.co.uk to organise cover for my upcoming Le Mans trip.

If you put in the reg number, they're going to identify the car. It would be reasonable to assume they will offer cover options to suit. For example, my cover for my Range Rover (and caravan) was £38. For a TVR Griffith it was double that.

Primarily the age of my Rangey. It's 2006/56 and the big two don't offer European cover at a reasonable price.

It's a very well looked after Rangey, so like you, I don't want to mess about. "Can you fix it? No? OK, this is the address in the UK where I'd like it to go..."

That site compares a lot of different recovery companies. Just because they don't necessarily use the big obvious choices doesn't mean they're no good. In the past I've had cover backed by ADAC and another pan European company (forget who) but it wasn't obvious from the paperwork.

Any recommendations?

I’d need direct repatriation to uk on request without the garage hoop jumping procedure, if possible..

The car has lift bit not sure how much as ive not collected it yet, would it be enough for RAC / AA standard trucks? (Aventador)

Any advice? Recomendations?

Thanks in advance..
Try your insurance company. NFU did me 2 weeks full European cover for £20! AA quoted £280.

So the only option for the Aventador was AA/RAC?

Surprised at that.
