This document summarises the key features of the insurance policy for SL63LHW. It is not tailored to individual needs and so may not provide all
the information relevant to your cover requirements. Complete pre-contractual and contractual information is provided in other documents.

What is this type of insurance?


We'll send a vehicle recovery operator to the scene of the breakdown to repair and provide assistance if your vehicle suffers a breakdown due to
an electrical or mechanical failure, lack of fuel, flat battery, misfuel, or puncture which immediately renders the vehicle immobilised. If you have
purchased Breakdown Cover (All Vehicles), the cover limits (what is not insured and restrictions sections) apply to each vehicle from the date they
come on cover on the associated motor policy.
