car valuation

[Victor Thompson]

My insurer (in France) is asking for an independent valuation for my escort insurance.  The car has just been restored.  Can anyone suggest a way of getting an insurance valuation please, preferably that can be done by photos rather than in person.

Normally a valuation for insurance purposes needs to be done by a licensed appraiser in person.

If the car is a Rs the Rs owners club do insurance valuations on all models

From the RSOC forum: (don't know if there is an RSOC in France)

RS Owners Club members can have their car valued by the registrar. The car must be first recorded on the register (see above) after that please follow the steps below;

Contact your registrar (by phone) first to discuss your car and arrange a date to value your car. You can find their contact details in the club magazine. You can bring your car to the registrar or it can be valued at one of the shows where your registrar will be attending or another registrar may be able to view your car.

Once a date has been arranged for a valuation, please purchase your HPI by following this link https://www.rsownersclub.co.uk/products-page/h-p-i-etc/

The HPI must be dated no longer than 28 days in advance of your valuation being carried out, this ensures valuations are based on the recent and complete information.

On the day of the valuation, please ensure you have all relevant History for the car available.

After the valuation, your registrar will issue you with a Valuation Form and be happy to answer any questions you may have.
