In my case Shannon’s wanted $2500 or $2800 for an agreed value of $120k which they offered but I declined as I was happy with my $900 market value policy. I’ll cross that value bridge if ever the car is written off and a lowball market value policy is offered. Then the arguments begin…
The point is to avoid the argument in the first place as you dont have any leverage and they %100 will low ball you if there's no agreed upfront value..
For example i see in your profile you have a Commo Motorsport edition
If we go off current Redbook valuation ( which have only changed recently) of an '17 Auto MS Edition - the private guide is 66 - 72K
Now if we look at carsales asking prices as a rough guide on what they are going for , they are starting at almost 90K for the cheapest at the moment
17-18K out of pocket is no joke - and that's probably your best case scenario too...as It wouldn't surprise me if they go via trade in price or some other way to minimize what the outlay is...in this case the trade in price would be 59 - 65 K, leaving you potentially 25-30 K short...
yeah nah
