    Hello there.
    My car has been broken down for a few days already, and I would like to get it to my mechanic friend who works in the city.
    I have signed to AA membership, but if I use it as the option 'home start', it could only tow my car about 15 miles away from my house (which is not enough to the city). And if I use it as the secure plus option (that means my car is not broken down at my house), then it could tow my car anywhere I want.

    So I was wondering if there is any Balbriggan towing service could tow my car away like 3 miles away with a reasonable price?

    Thanks a million.

    Get a mate to tow it on a Sunday morning. What's wrong with it?

    It is a disaster. :(
    The fuel pump is not working, and it happened like 3 times in one month, which means simply switch a new pump is not a final solution at all.

    The funny part is all my friends' car does not have the hook. >.<

    Maybe anyone lives in balbriggan could help me out ? I won't let him do it for free anyway.

    When I used a towing/breakdown service via my insurance it had a similar condition which would only bring car to the nearest garage within xx miles. When the tower arrived I told him I wanted it brought to my preferred garage, he said no problem that will be €30 and I had to fill out a form to agree to such. Not sure if AA do similar?
