Re: Insurance help needed fast!



It is your car so tell them to go to hell and have it towed to your house or 
somewhere you can leave it temporarily since after all it is your car until 
they pay you for it.....They are trying to give you the value from the blue 
book for an "average" car of that age with average wear and tear. I would 
think you would be able to fight their offering price by arguing that the car 
was above average hence the price you payed for it very recently......

 deal with State Farm.  This car was absolutely mint, as in the cleanest
 original 87 16V I've seen.  I paid $5200 for this car in March, a little
 high, but like I said, it's the cleanest I've seen.  Anyway, State Farm is
 only offering $3225.33 for a settlement on this vehicle.  There is no way in
 hell you're going to buy another GTI like this one for $3200.  What recourse
 to I have?  If I dispute this, I'll have to start paying daily storage fees
 on the car starting on 11/3.  I thought that the Ins Co paid this until the
 case was settled.  I think they're trying to get me to settle faster by
 stopping payment of storage fees.  Is this legal?  Can anyone offer any
 advice?  Your help is much appreciated.
