A friend of mine said just that to her insurance company when her Nova was
totalled, they offered her $1200 for a car that had at least $10000 sunk into
it.  After producing all the receipts and service records and telling them to
just get her the same car in the same condition, they ended up settling on
around $8000...  just don't accept less and keep your receipts!
