Online aggregator Gocompare.com has upgraded its motor comparison website to feature breakdown cover.

The site will now offer 40 breakdown products for car, motorbike and van drivers from providers such as AXA Assistance, Britannia rescue, Endsleigh and RAC Rescue.

Hayley Parsons, managing director, Gocompare.com, said: “We launched Gocompare.com with car insurance and our latest offering means we can also cater for customers who wish to buy breakdown cover independently of their car insurance.

"The service takes literally seconds to return all the products available and, with recent independent research1 that we commissioned indicating that saving time is the most important reason why people use aggregator sites such as Gocompare.com, we think our customers will welcome this new service with open arms.”

She added: “This is the first of a number of new products in the pipeline and we will continue to add personal insurances such as motorbike, household and van insurance to our portfolio, to offer our customers a quick and simple means of finding the best deal for them.”
