Insurance Valuation

[UpTheIron]

So it's that time of year again where I need to renew my insurance... just wonder what "market value" might be:

2001 Tuscan S
- 55k miles
- Power's 4.5 upgrade
- Nitrons
- Flip bonnet conversion
- Virtually immaculate paintwork (recent respray)
- showing signs of age/use elsewhere, so perhaps "good" rather than "showroom" in terms of interior condition etc

Anybody got any suggestions? No, it isn't for sale

Mine is similar 03 S 40k Str8six full rebuild in Feb this year/ bonnet conversion etc etc etc £35k valued

Reckon you're in the right ball park.

Mine's a 2002 4L tuscan with dom's 4.5 and 46K on the clock. I've got it insured for 30K.

Remember its a replacement valuation so what it would cost you to replace like for like and maybe at dealer premium.

mine is at £28.5k and is a 2002 3.6 Tuscan rebuilt this year at Powers

From my experience insurers will agree a valuation including a premium if you've had a respray and engine rebuild/mods etc. My mk2S 4.3 with full respray is agreed at £45k in March 2015 so i'll be renewing it somewhat higher this coming March.
