Car Values

[88535i]

Someone pulled in front of me and totaled my 88 535i. How can I get their insurance company to give me a resonable price for my car. They have currently offered $3,250. I have invested over 10K since 2001 and the car has been in the family since 1989. Any ideas.

You probably already know this, but in case you don't, most time insurance companies uses the Kelley Blue Book, (SEE BELOW), for their price they come up with when their totaling out an vehicle, and most the time their policy holders, (Like I would do,,,LOL), argues with them, and then if not settled, often it goes before an arbitration board to hear both sides, and then gets settled by the arbitrator, Good Luck!

I met with the adjuster. Hopefully she will work with me. We ended up knowing a lot of the same folks, for what that is worth. I explained what I needed out of the car and backed it up with paperwork. Who knows what will happen????
