Mine is insured at an "agreed value" based on an approved appraisal
at $14,000. As my 83.5 westy is "more than 12 years old" the insurer
also required an inspection performed and signed by  licensed
mechanic. It costs me $570.00 cdn annually. I drive it for personal
use only (not for commuting to work). No restricted mileage. I also
insure three other vehicles on the same policy.  I have a clean
driving record.
