laimeduck Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have searched this forum & have a load of info, but can someone please confirm that the breakdown side of membership covers the individual not the vehicle? ie I have 4 vehicles plus a motorbike, will they all be covered when I am driving them ( or my wife for the Partnership membership)? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pelmetman Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I assume its the individual Jeremy as they never asked for any vehicle details when I joined ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We transport the vehicle with luggage and cargo by ADAC contractor, from the garage to a repair shop at your residence. Can the vehicle be repaired at the destination, it will be transported there, if there is no higher costs. The benefits are also supplied to the protected vehicle after a theft, whether damaged or undamaged, recover was not yet transferred ownership and not a total loss. Cover applies to incidents occurring within the European area of coverage and, where the benefits defined in Paragrafen 12-21 are provided world-wide, also those occurring anywhere in the world.

laimeduck Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Many thanks for your replies Vandaemon & Dave (Pelmetman). I phoned Germany for an application form & it was confirmed that not only are you covered, but that if the car is registered in your name, then it is also covered no matter who is driving. This has good implications for us, as it means my daughter is covered in my ancient 2CV which she drives. All this for €98.7 for the whole family. Excellent value!
