AJB,

We do recognise modifications when applying values to vehicles.

Like for like replacement of damaged/stolen parts will always apply and an agreed value may also have been upon the policy.

At least you know that the policies perform when you need them.

Kind regards

Tony

My old RST, sold to my mate 20 months ago was written off after taking out 4 bollards and hitting every panel on the car, he swerved to miss a fox???
Yes, the car was absolutely mint and modified to the max.
And the insurance company before you ask was Greenlight.

Could this be the biggest payout ever???

This is why both my RS's are on agreed valuation policies.

lewis lisa They might offer you scrap value but you could and should refuse their offer and dispute the value. We did this when our old XR2i was written off.

They offered £600



2 weeks before the crash we had the photo's done for PErfomance Ford



After much faffing about they finally offered £2700

Afternoon Mike,

Unfortunately not, you still need at least a 1 year NCB & have to be aged 21 or over for us.

So we'll be able to help in april.

Kind regards

Tony
