About Asda Breakdown Cover
Asda also offer Roadside Cover for just GBP 25, which means if your vehicle can be fixed by the roadside, it will be. It-s a good value option that lacks many of the options covered by the core Breakdown Cover policy, but means your car will be fixed if possible and towed to a garage within a ten mile radius. As well as the Breakdown Cover and Roadside Cover options, Asda also offer European Breakdown Cover – meaning your vehicle is covered even if it breaks down in one of many European countries.
