Is it any good? My brother was planning on getting 'roadside rescue' and he asked me if I wanted to be added on, makes it cheaper. But is it worth it?

Invaluable if you've got an older car; but check that your insurance doesn't already provide some level of cover.

depends on what you're driving, how much you drive, and how many people you know that could help you out in the event of a breakdown.

it may be included with your insurance policy or cars manufacturers warranty.

Most insurance companies do it as a free add on so it's probably cheaper to look at that option.

I had it and I've been planning on getting it again but just haven't gotten round to it yet, I was invaluable to me because I had an accident on xmas day a few years ago, nothing serious but I had to get my car towed home and they done it for me, then my next cars engine gave up a few months later and that needed to be towed too! The xmas day one would of cost well more than a years AA membership

Well worth it, I'm a mechanic and i have it, it covers you not the car, so if you were in a mates car and it broke down you can call them for that. I was down in kerry on a bank hoilday weekend and the waterpump went, They sent a truck down from dublin and towed the car back up for me, and supplied me with a rental car, didn't cost me anything, just think of what the towing charge would be if i got a independent towing crowd to tow it back to dublin.

It does cover you and not the car, so it's better than the insurance policy breakdown cover you'd have. Also you get discounts on things like hotels and days out in Dublin and stuff like that.
