dubbprince 0 Posted February 10, 2004 anyone who lives near or around the birmingham area...would there be any chance you could just drive past the following area: At the services J14-J15 on M6 NORTH. It was bought by my good friend BOBBY...from the forum, he just needs to be re-assured its still in one piece and not jacked. Help is well appreciated. The problem was whilst he was driving it back the expansion tank blew, so no water to cool it down for the trip back up to leeds. Thanks! Sanjay. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bally 0 Posted February 10, 2004 A H plater like myn then, sweet!! Bobby, RAC played that one on me when I wrote of my car in northants, the panchords wouldn't tow the car back to MK! I got so towed the car to cousins who was local & after long chat with the membership dept I got free membership for another year & that the person on the fone had told me crap! i was covered to take the car to were ever I wanted it!!

dr_mat 0 Posted February 10, 2004 Depends on your cover level. The basic package just include 10-mile tow, anything above that includeds tow for as far as you like. Plus of course you can call them out to tow you somewhere else afterwards.. An idea forms.. Why not get them to tow you ten miles... wait 20 minutes, call them again... get them to tow you another 10 miles... wait 20 minutes... and so on.. It might take all night, but they'll tow you home!!
