Insurance offer help!!

A few undred quid is fuel for a year.

Point again out that you disagree with their valuation and that your view is based on evidence (ads supplied etc), and also the quoted text you highlighted earlier is worth emphasising again too. Ask for details and access to their internal appeals process and also ask them for the details of the Insurance Ombudsman pointing out that you believe strongly that they have made a mistake and you would like an arbitrated 3rd party opinion.


... and be polite at all times - although it looks like you've been completely reasonable so far, just hang in there and keep pressing.

For me!

If you have nothing else to do, then its probably worth a crack at getting more.

Realistically though £1500(+£100 for aftermarket) is a decent valuation for a curvy. As has been said personal injury etc is where you will get more £'s.

At the end of the day think about what you would of wanted/expected to get if you sold it. IMHO very few(if any) curvy's are worth much more than £1500.

Wow! That's a result. Wouldn't have thought they'd have paid any more out as insurance companies are usually so tight.

Good on you and good on the insurers.

Who are they?

If it was a payout from your own insurance, I'd expect them to give you what you valued it for. But seeing as it is the other persons insurance paying, you should get what it is worth! Well done, and keep fighting.
