My beloved zed was written off in a crash and suncorp metway only offered me $9500.Does anyone have any ideas?.Should I start shopping around for a new zed?,or try to buy my zed back from the auction?,or buy and totally different car all together?.Take into mind that my zed was my daily drive,so now I have no transport
if your car was insured for market value then $9500 looks about right. it's close enough to $10k which is the standard going rate these days from most insurance companies. i got a quote off justcar recently for full comp. they initially said $10k but after i gave them a list of what's been done to the car they actually agreed to insure it for $12k. operator said if i wanted more i'll need to provide receipts. that i can but pointless because i still can't afford full comp. if you have a lot of receipts, even maintenance stuff where parts were replaced or fixed etc, they "might" take it into consideration. you're going to have to pursue it and prove to them your car was worth more than what they're offering.
