3-B-6Get You Home/Hotel Accommodation
Should your Aston Martin not be repaired the same day, Aston Martin
European Emergency Service will organise and pay for the following:
a) First class rail transport, or, if rail transport would normally exceed 6
hours, scheduled business class air transport to enable you and your
passengers to return to your homes in the country of vehicle registration
or to continue your original journey.
b) A contribution towards hotel accommodation from the first day of
immobilisation. The maximum payable will be £100 per person per day
up to 2 days for hotel accommodation in the country of vehicle
registration or up to 7 days hotel accommodation elsewhere in
Continental Europe.
Car Hire
If, despite Roadside or Home Assistance, your Aston Martin cannot be
repaired the same day, Aston Martin European Emergency Service will
contribute towards the costs of a temporary replacement vehicle during
the time your vehicle remains immobilised.
The maximum payment under this section is £200 with a limit of £100 per
day in the country of registration or £400 with a limit of £100 per day
elsewhere in Continental Europe. You will be required to satisfy the
requirements of the vehicle hiring company. These requirements may
include:
• Production of your current valid driving license
• Taking up Collision Damage Waver (CDW) insurance, or taking up the
hire vehicle liability on your own insurance, as required by the hirer.
• Returning the loan car to the supplier with a full tank of fuel or paying
to have the fuel tank replenished by the hirer.

European Autoroute Restrictions
If assistance is required on a French Autoroute or on certain Autoroutes in
other European countries, you must use the official SOS boxes at the side
of the road in order to arrange initial assistance or recovery. You will be
connected to the authorised Autoroute Assistance Service because these
roads are privatised. Neither Aston Martin European Emergency Service or
any other assistance organisation are allowed to assist on these roads.
Once your Aston Martin has been recovered from the Autoroute, you
should contact Aston Martin European Emergency Service at the earliest
opportunity to ensure that any further assistance arrangements you
require can be made on your behalf.
Aston Martin European Emergency Service will advise you how to reclaim
costs incurred for recovery from the Autoroute.

comprehensive, however, claims cannot be met as a result of any of the
