Hi all,

ok, we had the agreed valuation facility some time ago, we got it back about a year ago but we haven't really made it public knowledge..

We've been a little reluctant to make it public knowledge as the actual process of agreeing a value is such a can of worms and also due to the popularity of this product, we do not want everyone thinking we can offer them an agreed value. The issues we have had in the past is customers over-valuing their vehicles and then getting upset when our underwriters refuse to over-value the car, we (the broker) get stuck in the middle but it's us who usually take the brunt of the criticism. The usual issue is that the customer will value their vehicle as the purchase price + maintenance cost + modification cost + sometimes even cost of fitting modification. This is NOT how to value your car.

We can only agree the value at how much the car will sell for, including modifications, to a like minded car enthusiast, in today's selling market.

If we over-value these vehicles we leave ourselves wide open to fraudulent claims, which we've been burnt with in the past, literally in one case.

So, whilst we do now have the facility to offer agreed valuations we ask you to bear the above in mind and be sensible when requesting your agreed valuation. You can speak to an agreed value intermediary if there is any confusion.

In addition, we will not be able to offer an agreed valuation for everyone, it can only be offered via our car club scheme, to fit this scheme our underwriting criteria must be met, also we will not be able to offer an agreed valuation on every car, we are looking for the modified and more special examples.

If you are interested in an agreed value policy then we would welcome your enquiry when you are shopping around for your insurance,

If you have any questions, please ask, either on this thread or by PM.

Thank you

Ollie
