Don't expect to get a tow from the AA if you have a "big" camper

Bigger than 5.5m that is

No kidding. I needed a tow as I've lost a belt due to a seized alternator, so no water pump.
I was told 5.99m is a big motorhome, too big for the AA.
After being bumped to a supervisor, and threatening to use my ADAC coverage [upto 7.5t and 10m], I was able to get a once off favour to tow to a garage 3km away.
They would have liked me to call ADAC as they would :( have paid the AA for the heavier service.

The same reason I cancelled my AA membership a few years ago, they don't cover anything over 3.5 tonne either.

I have cover from LV.
It covers up to 8m and 7.5 tonne and includes Europe.
