That is probably trade they have offered you. I expect one of the traders on here could confirm that. IMO bearing in mind the current economic climate, I would say that you should try for around £10500 - 11000.

 

+1 Good luck!

Have you got like-for-like cover on the mods? If not, then they'll just give you the price of a totally standard car.

 

Apologies if I'm telling you something you've already sorted.

 

To be honest you are probably right.. probably offering me standard car.

 

Thanks to everyone so far.. doesn't look like I'm too far off with the first offer then!

Again, sorry to hear about the car. I would definately push for get every penny you can get. I wouldn't settle for £9,250 especially if you spent near on £14k for it. I would try to push it to £11k plus the cost of the extras. You cant pick up any decent Z for £9k, so they should give you more than that, you couldn't buy a like for like one for that money - tell them this!

The best thing you can do at this point is trawl your way through the PH classifieds and Autotrader, and find similar cars. Bearing in mind you'll totally have to ignore the mods, just find a few good examples of cars like yours and the prices. Put all this together in a file and send it via recorded delivery to the insurers and prepare to start haggling.

 

 

What happened BTW? You ok?

Don't get a blue one, I've got one and you'll curse me! ;):lol:

 

You basically want enough money to go out and buy exactly the same car you've got now, which is why you need to see what's out there and what other people are asking for theirs.

 

:lol: Don't worry, I intend to keep the next one!
