    S2 ABY Valuation HELP

    Last week Tuesday in London we had snow. I was driving my daughters ford Fiesta, I was only doing around 3-5 mph as you do. Go outside ov my home, got l side by side with the S2 ready to reverse park behind her, when all ov a sudden I heard a noise seconds after I was jolted from the passenger side which then pushed my right hand side into the S2s passengers side. It was some bird doing around 35-30 in the snow. She hit a car on the left, thats the noise I heard before she hit me.

    Anyway long story short, employed a solicitor to organise engineer assessment. The report says my S2 worth £1500, salvage £150 so net worth £1350. (they put repairs at £3500) Im so mad coz it's worth more, now I have to prove it....any ideas? Ive looked for 'sold S2 Quattros' on google but am only findin 'for sale' which I assume doesnt prove much...

    So anyone have evidence of 1994 ABY S2 sold prices?
    Or do i get classic car company to value it...?

    Appreciate your help guys, distressing time...
    This was my boss and I know for a fact if he was around today he would be driving a sick ABY armour plated S2 1500 bhp....

    My car has an agreed value of £5000 with the insurer and should really be quite a bit more than that.

    For sale adverts are all you can offer, so find adverts and send them off.

    £1500 is an insult and the 'Engineer' obviously hasn't done his research.

    1994 ABY that's dog rough is worth over £3k, anything decent £5k, mint £6k+.

      I have a £6k agreed valuation on mine also. As Andy says find some ads and sold adverts of a similar condition S2 to yours and you can go back to negotiate. Insurers will try to pay as little as they can get away with

              I will be interested in what they have to say to your request as your S2 is a show winning car so it's bloody immaculate lol!! And these cars are creeping up in value
