The offer is open even to those who only have the rescue group"s most basic cover. If the vehicle can"t be repaired at the roadside, the AA patrol will take the member to the nearest Europcar centre to collect one of the brightly coloured Smarts. And if a bigger car is needed, an upgrade option is available for a small fee.

It"s called the Mastretta MXT, and is the work of Mexican industrial creative company Mastrettadesign.
Built on an aluminium chassis with reinforced plastic panels, the MXT has a mid-mounted 200bhp 2.3-litre four-cylinder engine which drives the rear wheels via a five-speed-manual gearbox. Thanks to its 1,000kg weight, the MXT can sprint from 0-60mph in less than seven seconds and has a 143mph top speed.
Standard kit includes sports seats, air-con and an MP3-compatible audio system. The MXT will go on sale next year and can be brought to the UK via a private import specialist.
