Title: Current market values Post by: davidwheeler on 08 September, 2012, 06:29:52 PM Just renewed the insurance on the Lambdas. Old Boot (VIIIth Weymann saloon)is valued at £45,000 and Sheila (VIIth Torpedo) at £50,000. I've looked at a few prices on the net and these values seem low by 50-100%. At what level do you all have your agreed values set?

Title: Re: Current market values Post by: davidwheeler on 01 March, 2013, 12:13:37 PM Just had a bit of a shock. Looked at recent sales and consulted a local expert and values came out at £100k for Sheila and £75k for OB. Fortunately extra premium was only £40 or so for the next 6 months so ll agreed and I dare take them out again!

They assure me that they are considering my generous offer. What's to consider! ;D
