During the warranty period, we will pay towards the
cost of rectifying the Rebuild, up to the cost of the
original Rebuild, following a breakdown of any
covered part or damage to any covered part. This
breakdown must happen during the period of cover.
In addition, this warranty does not cover you for
costs caused by, arising from, or connected with,
the following, which for the avoidance of doubt, we
will not cover:
- the repairing or replacing of parts which have not
suffered a breakdown, or have suffered a
breakdown solely due to wear and tear;
- any breakdown caused by parts, which were
faulty before this cover started;
- repairing or replacing any excluded parts or any
parts that are not listed in the schedule of
covered parts, unless we determine upon
examination that the damage to the excluded
part was as a direct consequence of a failure by
a covered part;
- for breakdown, damage or destruction of a
covered part which was as a direct consequence
of failure by an excluded part;
- the breakdown of any insured part if this is
caused mainly or completely by wear and tear;
- breakdown or damage caused by the use of
incorrect fuel, oil, lubricant, coolant or other
fluid, including the use of fully-synthetic oil
or use >500 miles beyond a recommended
service interval will automatically void this
warranty;

competitive purposes (except treasure hunts)
including rallying, racing, time trial and pace
making; or vehicles that have been used for hire
or reward, as a taxi, by a driving school or for
commercial delivery purposes such as dispatch

accidental damage, theft or attempted theft, the

modifications;

that are specifically covered;

Servicing following Rebuild -
You must look after the
vehicle in line with the manufacturer's servicing
handbook, and have it serviced by Powers
Performance or a Powers Performance Authorised
Dealer at the recommended service intervals specified
in the manufacturers service manual, or as advised to
you by Powers Performance in writing.
You must
ensure that you use the following grade of oil
during and after the running in period; [0 - 1000
miles use only 10W/40 mineral oil] and [>1001 miles
use only 10W/40 or 15W/40 semi-synthetic oil].
You
must ensure the garage fills in and stamps the
handbook. You should also keep the invoices from
services as you must provide proof of servicing when
you make a claim. If the customer has provided parts
for the servicing of the vehicle, this will only be
acceptable if there is proof of purchase of such parts.
Your Responsibility -
You are under a duty to mitigate
any losses suffered by you, and therefore, you must not
exacerbate any damage or potential breakdown by
running the vehicle (including the Engine, Gearbox and
Transmission) where you have observed a potential
problem in the everyday running of the Rebuild. We
shall upon inspection determine in our sole opinion and
advise to you whether any additional or unnecessary
damage has been caused to any covered parts, and if
so, you shall be required to pay a contribution towards
the cost of rectification of the Rebuild in addition to the
cost of any excluded part(s) that may also have been
damaged as a consequence.
Claims procedure -
You must report to us within 5
working days from the time you observed a problem
with the Rebuild or of any potential parts failure of
breakdown. If you do not, you may not be covered.
Investigation costs - You are responsible for giving us
permission to start any exploratory, investigation
or dismantling work and for paying the costs involved if
this work proves that we are not responsible for the
fault. We will only pay any reasonable exploratory,
investigation or dismantling costs if they are part of a
valid claim. You will be entitled to engage a third party
to conduct an independent investigation after we have
conducted our own exploratory investigation.
Any
independent investigation conducted prior to our
own, will render this warranty void.
Limitation of our Liability -
Save for any liability
arising as a result of death, or bodily injury, our liability
under this warranty is limited to the cost of the Rebuild
set out in the invoice.
Fraud and Duty to give us information
If you do not give us the correct information when you
make your proposal, the warranty may not be valid and
we may consider your application fraudulent. If we
discover that you have made a false claim, or if you,
have given us false information to receive benefits
under the warranty, the cover will end forthwith.
English law
English law will apply to this warranty. We submit to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
