Mine was £6500 last year but with the new engine and all the work over the years, I don't think thats representative any more. What have people got their cars valued at?

I'm interested in this too. My urq build has a very average paint job but a huge amount of cash spent on all the mechanical and electrical bits. Just wondering what the best way to insure it is. I would of thought 30k would be a conservative price to pay for the parts never mind the building of it?

I'm a bit miffed on this front, I may have set my valuation too low at £7k according the Adrian flux today it is worth £5500 and there is no way I could ever get a similar spec s2 for that moneyGreg

Am keen to see where this thread is going as am going with agreed valuation this year after the money I've put into mine and once the paint job is done. Am going for an agreed valuation of £12k on mine
Am also interested who people are going with or recommending based on experience

With the rate these cars are appreciating agreed value insurance seems to be a complete waste of time on an unmodified car, a good policy seems like a much better idea. My RS2 was worth about £15K when I first put it on the road and I 'agreed value' insured it for £18K to cover myself. 11 moths later I'd struggle to replace the car for double that so it's covered on a decent policy that would reflect the current market value at the time anything untoward should happen.....which isn't likely. I have my S2 for thrashing which can stay looking tatty while I turn my RS2 into a temple.
Trust me, I know a mate who stands to be stung on this soon.
I can understand someone like Des' who's UR is constructed out of all sorts of exotic after-market hardware wanting special cover, but it seems like a bad idea on a stock examples which could go up in value by £1000's in months.
It's a tricky one, I hate insurance.

I don't think they make you sport the lapel badge, you may however have to carry a tape measure to inform other owners their badges are incorrectly positioned.1989 B3 2.0 3A 80 quattro... Budget 1.8T Project.

When I tried to report it, my insurer said "it was his lucky day"... Because there was already outstanding damage, it couldn't be proved that it had happened previously....

There's no ****ing hope hope from the dirty thriving scumbags....
Definitely a case of you will get shafted, it's just how long and how hard.
