[W126 Coupe] Insurance BS..

[Mike Ramay]

Pay the money to have a professional appraisal performed. Mine cost around
$250 and it was the biggest reason I doubled my return from the other guys
insurance company. I found an appraisal company in the yellow pages, did a
little internet searching about them to verify credibility, and then called
them up. They were done in a week.

Thanks,

Hello List,
As ya'll might remember, my 87 560SEL was involved in an accident
about 2 months ago.  I'm now at an unsatisfactory cross roads w/ the
Insurance company of the lady who hit me.

As it stands now, I have receipts from the last two years totaling in
excess of $13,000.  The company is offering my 8000.00 and they keep
the car, if I keep the car they are offering 5200.  I've been told i
can take the lady that hit me to small claims to try and force the
insurance company to re-evaluate.

Any advise as to what my next step should be?  I'm aiming for the
8000+ mark and I keep my car.

Many Thanks!!!

Jonathan
