Well the insurance company has made the “offer” on my compromised URQ.
I did my best to explain to the claims officer and the adjuster exactly what
a Quattro was, repeatedly stating that a CGT was _not_ the same thing, but
could detect that “deer in the headlights” effect even through the phone.
He stated that they had reviewed 4 ads for “your car” in the Denver area,
and established a value of $6500. One such ad was for a car in Aurora. There
is no URQ for sale in Aurora that I am aware of. Likely a CGT, or a 90 Coupe
Quattro.
They did agree to allow me to have the car repaired at our dealership
Collision Center, where I can work with friends/coworkers who are eager to help and
try to get the car right. They are more than willing to work with me on
sourcing parts etc., and I feel better that if we get into any negotiating “issues
”, the repair shop will be Audi experts.
On that note, I need a source and price for a front valance as mine is
broken. Anyone? The hood and door will be easy. The roof if they decide to replace
will be an issue as this car has no sunroof, which creates a headliner issue
as well.
Our adjusters and body techs are going to do a teardown to firmly establish “
if” indeed the car can be brought back to straight at all regardless of
price.Let the games begin!
