how do i go about getting a club valuation or independent

insured my car with peter best a little while ago, sent them pics of my car, etc

my car is a 1975 swallowtail,
1 previous owner!
92k on the clock - genuine
mint bodywork and interior,
engine bay could do with a respray but is tidy.
bbs rm's

and they value it at £3,000 ???????? you'd struggle to get a tidy series 1 for that!!

they wont budge unless i get a mk1 owners club valuation or an independent.

any advice welcome!!

cheers. lee

this isn't something that we offer atm

what do you valve your car at?

id personally value it around 6-7k there's been a couple sold for 9-10k but they dont come up often so its hard to judge….

so what have peter best actual asked you for

reason for the questions is i'm looking into what the club has to do, to supply these valuations

ah cheers, they've said that as i'm a member of this car club, was a paid member - just run out. they need a valuation done by someone at the club so i assume its someone that carries some weight here like a moderator or chairman etc. then ive got to send the valuation in to them along with the same pictures i have already sent in, they're sending me them back.  i suppose it would be a summary of the cars condition etc and what they think its worth.

Would be worth finding adverts for other swallowtails. And send them to the insurance company , somewhere online you can also find out how many of your model still left

yeah i said that too them as i thought that was the normal drill but they said it has to be a valuation of my car and they wont accept other ads etc. complete morons.. i think they think i'm trying it on with the value…

i looked before on that how many left of my model, there were 3 including mine in england and wales, my was the only one taxed that year the other two were sorned.
