I had a write off on a d1 3.9 lpg similar damage but also bonnet and wing. It cost me 950, they paid 1500 less 350 excess. They pay book value, not what you tell them it is worth.


Everything in life is negotiable.

A few years ago I had a Honda VFR 750, 6 weeks old and it was knicked and trashed. Initially I was offered £6500 as a full payout, but I refused and was able to prove that, at that time, a 6 week old VFR was worth £7500 so after a number telephone calls I accepted a pay-out of £7300.

Ok my insurance is up for renewal at the end of January. Any body recommend a decent insurance provider???

Compare the meerkat, local broker, direct line (who don't offer policies through brokers) and NFU (depending on postcode in my experience)
