Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31588, member: 636"] Looking for agreed value car insurance helps people with special vehicles find better protection. Most normal cars lose money fast, but special cars need different coverage. You pay more for this type of plan, but you sleep better knowing your exact payout amount stays fixed. Cars like classics, rare models, or ones you fixed up yourself deserve special treatment from insurance companies. Regular market value plans might pay much less than what your special car actually costs. When you pick agreed value insurance, you tell the company what your car costs. They check your number, agree with you, then write it down. Later, if someone steals your car or it breaks beyond repair, they give you exactly that amount of money. This differs from stated value plans, where they pay either your number or market price - whichever costs them less. Market value means whatever your car sells for right when something bad happens. This protection makes sense for unusual cars worth extra money or ones that gain value over time. Perhaps you spent years fixing an old beauty until every part shines. Maybe famous people drove your car before you bought it. When your vehicle stands out because it looks perfect or has rare parts, agreed value plans protect that extra worth. You know exactly what money comes back if thieves take your car or crashes destroy it. Insurance companies want proof before they agree with your price number. They ask for pictures showing inside, outside, plus the engine area. They need papers showing who bought the car first and any famous past owners. Bring receipts from repairs, special parts, or tune-ups. Some places want expert opinions from car value professionals. These value papers work for just one insurance company, meaning you need new papers when switching companies. Finding these plans takes extra work since few companies offer them. Just three percent of standard policies include this choice without asking. Many car lovers talk to special agents who search through many companies for the right plan. Prices change between different places, making shopping around smart. Ask if joining car clubs gives you price breaks. Remember to check your car value each year when renewing your policy since special cars often become worth more money over time. [/QUOTE]
