Alternative Travel Arrangements

If the Service Provider estimates that the repairs to your Vehicle will take more than eight hours, the Aston Martin Emergency Assistance will cover your reasonable costs for alternative necessary travel, including for members of your party.
Reasonable additional expenses shall be covered for one or a combination of the following:

  • Alternative replacement vehicle costs to a maximum of two working days in your Country and up to 14 days outside your Country.
  • Airfares (business class ticket).
  • Rail fares (first-class ticket).
  • Local taxi fares.
  • Any other transport equivalent to first-class rail fares.

Replacement Vehicle
If following a Breakdown Incident:

  • Your Vehicle is immobilized.
  • Roadside repairs are unsuccessful.
  • If repair of the Vehicle is not possible within the same day after towing to the Dealer.

Aston Martin Emergency Assistance will organize free of charge, an alternative replacement vehicle for you until the completion of the repairs. The replacement vehicle will include fully comprehensive insurance 1, with an option to upgrade to include a collision damage waiver.
The loan of this alternative replacement vehicle will not exceed two working days (in your Country) or, if the Breakdown Incident occurred outside your Country, 14 days plus two working days after your return to your home country.

Aston Martin Emergency Assistance aim to make sure that the alternative replacement vehicle is a suitable vehicle for you. Specially adapted replacement vehicles will not be provided. The alternative replacement vehicle will be delivered to you, where possible, but if you prefer, taxi costs for collecting the alternative replacement vehicle, will be met by Aston Martin Emergency Assistance. You will be responsible for fuelling and basic maintenance of the alternative replacement vehicle, while under your care. You will also be responsible for paying any deposit required by the vehicle Hire Company.
Once the repair on your Vehicle is complete, the alternative replacement vehicle will then either be returned to the vehicle Hire Company or collection will be arranged where possible, at your request.

If the alternative replacement vehicle has been kept beyond the term of the permitted loan period (as noted above), you will be responsible for any additional charges incurred for the extended period. If you cannot fulfil the nominated vehicle Hire terms and conditions, or circumstances prevent you from qualifying to hire the vehicle, and alternative mobility arrangements are more appropriate, then onward travel arrangements or hotel accommodation will be provided instead. The vehicle hire agreement will be between you and the relevant supplier and will be subject to that supplier’s Terms and Conditions. These will usually require or include (amongst other things):

  • Production of a full driving license valid at the time of issue of the hire vehicle.
  • Limits on acceptable endorsements.
  • Limitations on the availability and, or engine capacity of the replacement vehicle.
  • A deposit, e.g. for fuel.
  • Drivers to be aged at least 21 years depending on the Country, and to have held a full driving license for at least 12 months.

Onward or Home Journey
If following a Breakdown Incident that occurs more than 80 km (50 miles) from your place of residence, your Vehicle cannot be repaired at the roadside on the same day of the Breakdown Incident, Aston Martin Emergency Assistance will cover:

  • The costs of the journey from the place of the Breakdown Incident to the nearest Dealer.
  • The costs of a replacement vehicle as outlined above.
  • Where necessary, taxi costs for one journey to the nearest accessible train station or airport, for you and your passenger(s).
  • Where necessary, the costs of a first-class train journey for you and your passenger(s). If the train journey exceeds six hours, the cost of a scheduled flight (Business Class) for you and your passenger(s).

Aston Martin Emergency Assistance will reimburse you for reasonable costs incurred relating to the above, upon receipt of a claim letter from you, detailing the circumstances of the claim, along with receipts for all transport costs claimed. All claim letters must be directed to Aston Martin Emergency Assistance at Aston Martin Customer Service, Aston Martin Lagonda Limited, Banbury Road, Gaydon, Warwick, CV35 0DB.
