I am now trying to include my 2003 Mamola BCR with two other bikes on a Multi bike classic insurance policy with Carol Nash, they have now asked for four photographs for an agreed valuation. I am stating £5499 for the agreed replacement value.
Do you think that I am in the right ball park ?

If you document the condition of the bike(s) - just go for a nominal sum for insurance?

I think the £5500 value is a bit steep? although if they agree to it - why not?

Why not insure for around £4,800 (is that more realistic?) and if worst happens and:
1) you need to claim
2) they offer a derisory sum

You ask them to find a replacement for you.

When I binned a special edition car - I had sales figures for the previous year for that car, and used it to lever the right amount from the insurance company.

This bike is near mint with just under 9000 miles, it would be hard to find a like for like BCR.
I already have this Classic bike policy in place with a 1957 BSA B31 400cc Goldstar Clubman replica agreed value £6500 this was also valued by the BSA club, and a fully restored 12000 mile 1979 BMW R100S with an agreed value of £4500 it is also valued by the BMW Club UK.
I have asked to add the Boxercup on to the same policy, they have asked me to send photographs taken from all four sides.

Ah-Hah!

I'd have all the panels off, and take loads of pics, then - saves any argument later.

I don't think they will dispute my valuation, it is just a matter of proving it is worth what I say. Maybe I can get the BMW club to back me up on this.

Get Steve to have a word with them!!
