My insurance company have asked for a written valuation for my touring (a short letter). The valuation needs to come from a president or ??? of a club/organisation.
Can anyone recommend who could do this for me?

I could be head of the e30zone club for a fee.

I'm a member and have saved much more than the £35 membership fee over the last year. I saved 10% on my insurance, 10% off quite a few products at various retailers and even got free tickets to the WTCC at Brands Hatch recently.

Just check what they require and I'll see what I can do. I'm not 100% sure if we would be seen as a valid source of a valuation but worth a try.
I could get Iain and Steve to co-sign it.

I am sure that the insurance company would accept a valuation from you Dave. I have done similar for Routemaster bus owners as members of a club that I was Treasurer of.
There is no set authority for clubs etc for valuation purposes so you should be sound.

You pay to join the BMWCC and then its another £15 for the valuation. Maybe you can negotiate a valuation without membership. Tel no is 01225 709009.

Rav,so is mine,i will also be after this.
Maybe the zone could charge for this service,could go towards the funds for running the zone.
£15 would be reasonable,however it could become a job in its self!

I was going to comment that I'll personally only be doing this for cars that I have seen and know well enough to put my name to a valuation.
I will discuss it to the rest of the team to see if we are interested in doing this as a service.

Rav, I've seen it from 15ft, Not had a proper look around it like Dans one.
If the insurance companies are happy with forum staff valuing the cars I can set up a check list sheet that which ever of the team inspects the car will fill out after doing the visual check.
At the moment this is a one off for Dan, We may do more if the rest of the team decides it is ok.

No probs Dave, understand the position you would be in, and the responsibility for the task.

I am selling it Si, I don't know how long it will take to sell though so I'm carrying on as usual for now. Once the insurance company has agreed the value I wont be at a loss if something happens before it sells.
