Last week someone (speeding and on their phone) ran into the back of my 2016 VF SV6 Black. GIO have declared it a total write off.
Fortunately when I bought it new I took out the Lifetime New Car Replacement option, which was a great decision as second hand cars are now selling for more than what I paid for mine new!
So the question is, how do I determine (for the suspected upcoming debate) what the equivalent new car value is of my 2016 car since utes are no longer made?
By way of example, folk are asking $39k for a lower optioned 2017 VF which is $2k higher that what I paid.
Any suggestions on what an equivalent new car is to a VF ute appreciated.
Has anyone had a similar claims experience.
All advice appreciated.
