For those that haven't done the math, 0.7Nm is a hair over 6 inch pounds.

I handle the insurance by letting the insurer cover it as a 528e, then adding coverage to the policy for a specific value. Most insurance companies let you do that. I think I pay about $300 a year for coverage. The reality is, I can probably part the car out for more than I'm asking for it. But that would be a shame :-( -tdc On Jan 17, 2007, at 11:20 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > FWIW, I was considering buying this car a few years ago (Tom, I'm > surprised > you still have it!?) and took it for a test drive.

I think I pay >about $300 a year for coverage. Hey Tom, Can you tell us who your insurance company is? I currently have our four cars with Allstate and they do not offer agreed value insurance for cars. I have found specialty insurance companies that do offer it, but all of them have driving/mileage restrictions. So, my search (even Google (gasp)) to get our two M cars covered has come up with nothing. Thanks, Rex Tener [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2007 20:11:32 -0500 From: "Chris Eck" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Rex Tener" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: bmwuucdigest@uucdigest.com Subject: Re: Agreed Value Insurance (was Re: '88 M5 Conversion for sale) Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For the record, I switched to Allstate several years ago, and when my policy arrived, it very plainly stated that they would not cover damages occuring from any activity beyond the pit wall of any race track. I don't know whether anyone has challenged this with HPDE damage or not, but the policy spells it out very clearly. Something for track drivers to think about. I'll be changing insurers before I go back on track this summer. Chris Eck On 1/17/07, Rex Tener <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > At 12:01 PM 1/17/2007, Tom Childers wrote: > >Hey, thanks Scott.

I'm dumping Allstate (Allsnake), since I can save $600+ on the auto insurance only. The homes and other stuff offer savings or better coverage. No, not the slimy lizard company (die lizard, die). Liberty Mutual has language that makes them not happy about Driver's Ed events, autocross, etc. I should check to see if they do agreed value.

BTW, my P-car (944 Turbo) has a KBB value of $6 (good luck finding a running Turbo for that little!) and its insured for $16,000 (a bit over current prices, but I have a letter from Porsche saying its worth that :) Total insurance for that car is ~$600/yr NJM has great customer service, and actually gives yearly rebates! its the best insurance in this state... the trick is beign able to GET it! (no affiliation, just a happy customer... blah, blah, blah.) Good luck with the M5 sale...
