Default Agreed Value $$$$$

according to the latest postings in corvette magazine, my car is worth roughly $40,000. when i give my insurance the "agreed value" is this the value i should give them? is there any reason to give them a higher value like $50,000 or something to cover any *hidden* costs or things i may not be thinking about. all you guys out there that have had claims (unfortunately) what did your experience teach you?

my other question is... do i need to keep on updating this value with the insurance company as time passes and the value of the car changes?

THANKS AS ALWAYS

Are you already insured with a collectors policy?

When I finished the restoration of my vintage motorcycle I needed to send in invoices to substantiate the increase in value I asked for.

An appraisal would probably be in order for your car.

Default I would go a little higher

I suggest that you get a quote for a value a little higher.

It may only be another 50.00 a year for 50K.

These cars are going up in value rather fast and I would want to be off to my favor not Haggerty's
