rob and tina its not arrival or any of the caravan specific rescue bundles i was initially on about ,if its caravan rescue then lets face it your caravan is covered adequately .

my INITIAL POST   was re people like myself who have just got ordinary ,RAC.AA,GREEN-FLAG etc etc car recovery cover ,and in most instances you will find that these days in the case of a problem with your caravan or indeed trailer or folding camper ,they will not attend to help you ,even though whilst towing the trailer etc is part of your vehicle train .

and was basically a alert to read the small print or check by phone .a couple of years ago i/we would have been covered for a puncture ,but not now

Have spoken directly with the Green Flag breakdown control room this morning and they assure me that, yes , they will come out to repair/change a puncture on the caravan as long as it attached to the tow bar at the time

That's what the AA told me as well.

Just checked with my car breakdown Brittania Rescue and they will turn out for a caravan puncture as long as its towed. Been with them 22 years and always been ok

they may all cover you for a puncture but they certainly wont recover your van if its needs taking somewhere unless your towcar has broken down

Britannia Rescue took my van to a depot when I lost a wheel on it 2 years ago. They checked my car over and as I was OK to carry on they then brought my van to my house for me 2 days later.
I have been with them since 1980 and I have had nothing but superb service from them.
