    I'm unsure as to whether i should add personal accident benefit to my motor insurance (for an extra 100 euro).
    I've been doing fine on cheap and cheerful (albeit fully comp.) motor insurance for a while, not really paying attention to how much PAB cover i had but i've just started to obsess over it now for no reason. :p

    By all accounts, many policies just do the minimum PAB cover (5000 say) so i'm not alone.
    But the AA cover up to 75000.

    Do i really need this- i have VHI.
    Who has this on their policy?

    If the extension gives you a weekly/monthly amount while you are injured it may be worth it. If it only gives you an amount in the event of a loss of limb or death etc, it is not worth it and poor value
