Chaps, the 5 has come up for insurance and i need to get an agreed value down. The car as you all may or may not know has a 225 engine fitted, adaptronic ecu, and a few custom parts for the conversion. Body work is pretty good with the odd spot of rust bubble. The rest is tidy and standard. What value would you put on this car for insurance purposes??
not knowing what money you have spent on this beast i would say around the 5k region..... imagine the engine cost you a packet!?
6k
Its not really what ive spent that matters i dont think, but on what its actually worth with all the kit on. Yeah the engines are about 5 grand new from reno or i've seen em for about 1500 on the ebay. It has other stuff like charge temp gauge, afr gauge and all the relevant dials etc.
If with HIC above 5k they force you onto full comp, also there value brackets for increasing the money is 3.5k to 5k and 5k to 7.5k
doesnt help you much but it may give you an idea.. my vag 5 has an agreed value with hic of 10k
