i have been a member of the RAC for over 20 years , and unless you belong to the CCC they have a length restriction of 25 feet for caravan and drawbar , as mine is 26 feet , they want me to pay £40 to join the CCC and as I have the full package from the RAC , my renewal is £140 plus the CCC membership of £40 , so I started looking into ADAC , I can get a better package from them for just over £80 which covers me for the whole of Europe , and guess what if I call for a breakdown in the UK they send either the RAC or AA out , so the RAC have shot themselves in the foot , I am getting better cover a £100 cheaper ,

Other points are:-
If Caravan breaks down you will get service for it but not a rental caravan.
Covered full recovery of your car and caravan back to your home town if cannot be repaired in 3 days.
If you get recovery for your car they will pay for passengers repatriation by first class train tickets or economy air tickets. or rental for a car for 7 days.
If it is a relativly minor repair and does not need repatriation ADAC covers costs of up to 200 Euros to tow you to the nearest garage within 80 km (50 miles) radius of where you breakdown.
ADAC is a club and it's partners in the UK are the AA and the RAC.
All contact numbers in Europe have English speaking staff. These numbers are listed in the Members Manual or on Card.
Fuel. If filling the car up with fuel in Germany at a Shell Garage, show your ADAC Membership Card and you will receive a 2% Discount off Bill. Every little helps.
UP DATED JUNE 2012. If you should breakdown or have an accident with the car rendering it un-drivable, away from the caravan (ie on camp site. ) ADAC will provide you with a tow car to continue journey or for you to repatriate it back to the UK. On arrival at your home ADAC will sort out repatriation of the tow car to its Country of origin.
ANOTHER ISSUE. If you should breakdown on a French Motorway no Organization is allowed to tow you off except for the French Motorway Authorities. Unfortunately they demand fee for this service which can be quite a high price. The only way you can recoup your payment is to contact ADAC and they will re-in burse you. I would think this would apply to any other UK Breakdown Insurer but not sure
---------------------------------------------------------that's roughly what you are covered for with ADAC
