I know holidayloverxx had her car repatriated after she had her accident in Austria, and that it wasn't her holiday insurance company that did it, but whoever she was insured for breakdown cover.

@altis, Is that your translation, or copied from ADAC`s site in English ? If the former, can you translate the mag they send ?

When my insurers offered to repatriate me when I broke my pelvis they weren't going to repatriate the car. I didn't want to go home anyway - it was easier to stay in a small apartment on one level than in a 3 storey house at home. But then they did subsequently pay for 2 drivers to fly out and get a taxi to Les Saisies. (2 drivers because that meant saving an overnight in a hotel). Reasonably enough they didn't pay for the journey home by car as I'd have been making that anyway.
I did have breakdown insurance so it's possible that would have paid to get the car back - I never explored that as it suited me better to wait till I was more mobile and could go back in a normal way, by car.

@Samerberg Sue, which receipts, for the treatment ?
We have cover with them and the medical repatriation is a big bonus, if it works

@AndAnotherThing.., Original bills/receipts for the treatment I got in Altenmarkt last Christmas for by really bad sinusitis. Got to find them as they will only pay out with the originals, not copies.

Just to be clear, I was enquiring about personal repatriation not vehicular.
@cstreat, I found it lying around on the web somewhere. I wish I could read the mag too. I have a Zertifikat Deutsch als Fremdsprache so ought to be able to make a decent fist of it. But that was years ago and I've lost too much vocab now. Most of it goes straight over my head.

@altis, they have repatriated me and my car three times now (dislocated shoulder, ruptured ACL and a broken ankle). I did ask what if I wanted to go home to my parents in the UK and they said that repatriation was to the home address on the policy.
