Tesco offers 30% discount on Car Breakdown Cover

The offer applies to all first-year Standard Care, Extra Care and Total Care policies bought online, in store or over the phone. The unique product requires no form filling, gives instant roadside cover and can be bought in many Tesco stores, Tesco petrol stations, online or over the phone and means your car is covered instantly.

The table below shows how much customers can save with the discount:

Tesco Car Breakdown Cover	One car: Usual Price	With 30% discount	Two cars: Usual price	With 30% discount
Standard Care	£33.00	£23.00	£59.00	£41.00

Total Care	£79.00	£55.00	£129.00	£90.00

Another unique feature of Tesco Car Breakdown Cover it that the car is covered rather than just the individual, meaning the customer’s car is covered regardless of which family member is driving.
