Breakdown cover is a good idea for anyone who is on the road a lot. It’s not that expensive, and prompt roadside assistance can keep a fairly minor problem from turning into a huge headache. Of course, even a reliable car can break down, particularly if it isn’t maintained well, but here is a list of cars that have shown to be more prone to breaking down, in alphabetical order.

Alfa Romeo 159, 2006-present
Audi A5, 2007 through present
Ford Galaxy, 2006-present
Ford S-Max, 2006-present
Hyundai Santa Fe, 2006-present
Jaguar S-type, 1999-2007
Jaguar XF, 2008-present
Land Rover Discovery, 2004-present
Land Rover Freelander, 2006-present
Volvo XC90, 2002-present

European breakdown cover is also a good idea, even if you only take out single-trip cover. It’s easier than ever to drive to the continent but, unfortunately, the problems of breaking down while abroad can turn a nice family holiday into a nightmare. Many companies offer English-speaking roadside assistance in Europe, making language barriers one less thing to worry about should you break down. Of course, you should always keep your car maintained, but breakdown cover offers great peace of mind for those who drive a lot, and for those back home who may worry about them.
