As a newcomer in this forum I would have a few questions. My girlfriend had with her restored Porsche 911 S year 1979 a self-inflicted accident damage, which the comprehensive insurance took over. After a full braking, where also all 4 new tires had brake plates, she hurled and got into the guardrails. Damage around the vehicle. The expert of the insurance estimated the vehicle value at € 27,000 and the repair costs incl. de r 4 new tyres amount to € 27.316.33 incl. VAT. The damage calculation and the replacement value are not to be objected to by the expert who made my girlfriend before the accident (€24.000). Now the insurance wants to calculate for total damage because the damage is above the time value of the Porsche and sets a residual value of € 8,000. Can my friend not have the vehicle repaired? For good tip I would be grateful.
