I believe you can join RAC and ask for attendance all in the same phone call if you are already broken down.
I used the RAC at home service for my wife's non starting Ford yesterday. The guy came, diagnosed the cam sensor and wanted to change it for free at a cost of £51 for the part. I know from experience that £51 is too much for a cam sensor so I sent him on his way. I got one from a local factor for £18 and it took literally five minutes to fit. Moral of the story is to only let them fit parts if you have no other choice. They always overcharge you. I enjoyed giving feedback to them later on.
Pattern cam and crank sensors are notorious for failing .....
Having said that, an OE cam sensor for EmilysMum's Citroen was less than £30 a few years ago
