Not right, I'm afraid - they will recover you from any sealed road, but not from any unsealed road, public or not. Rats.

However, as Chuggaman points out I guess they may entertain the concept if you're preapred to pay a little over the odds for the privilage.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

Jake was recovered by the AA from a very much unsealed car park at Slab Common! I'm guessing the car park is not generally public access either.

Apparently, he was up for "recovering" the car if necessary :)

Not a 4x4 but the Green Flag I know down the road did a classic recovery a few years ago;

A brand new Vauxall Omega (2 days old) and the driver - guess the sex- didn't put the handbrake on, Green flag had a local diving company put the winch cable on as the car was 18' deep in the lake!

I guess a gentle green lane is easy compared to that?
