Advice to members about RH European Breakdown Recovery Scheme – 13.3.25
A7CA representatives recently met with RH Specialist Insurance to discuss the types of breakdown cover they offer for clients travelling in Europe.
RH use DAS and ERS to oversee the recovery service in mainland Europe and you can choose the service you wish to take out, during your renewal conversation with RH.
During our meeting with RH it became clear that they consider ERS suits the needs of Austin Seven owners better. If using ERS, there are several procedures and choices to be made which are illustrated in the flow chart below1 .
The key point to emphasise is that to be eligible for any onward travel you must allow RH to identify a local garage, have the car recovered to it and then let the local garage decide whether they can repair the car or not.
