andymc 0 Posted June 7, 2007 i have done just that, told the woman she was having a laugh, they claim thats the guide price Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martinb 0 Posted June 12, 2007 tbh im surprised they offered that much, insurers guide/book prices are usually always hugely different to enthusiast valuations thats why im always going on to people about how important agreed valuations are and why sometimes its worth paying a little extra to be with a specialist. In their opinion thats all its worth, same as thats all you would be likely to be offered if you tried to trade the car in at a local vw dealers, remember to a lot of these people its just an 11+ yr old car thats done over 100k, most probably dont even know what a corrado looks like! All you can do mate is stick to your guns and send them loads of examples of similar spec cars for sale (sometimes hard for something like a storm as there aint that many about!) showing the prices they go for and hope for a better offer. best of luck Martin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
