Help needed with 993 turbo valuation

My insurance is coming up for renewal and I am looking for some help valuing a 1997 Factory S bodied 993 turbo 4 with factory engine upgrade.
The car is pearlescent white and in excellent condition. It has covered 40k miles and has always been serviced by a Porsche main dealer.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
 
To be honest most insurance companies would just give you book, but to me your car in the current climate sounds like its worth inbetween 45 k -50 k.
Thats what i would pay.
 
Agree with above, should be in the 50k bracket (based on ads but obviously its sales that count and there isnt much selling right now). BTW Never seen a pearl white one, could you treat us with a picture?

You should qualify for and agreed/classic insurance policy since the car is older than ten years.[:)]
You may well have to ring around to find an insurance company that will do this (take a look in Porsche Post to find one)
To help you get to the point where you and the insurance company can agree on a fixed price (ie and agreed policy value)
Talk to them. I would suggest that you look through car adverts (I know this car is rare) and put these before the insurance company.
Tell them you have found similar cars ie normal 993 Turbo but yours is worth more because it may have lower mileage, extras such as engine upgrade etc.
You could (if you are a Porsche club member) ask for a valuation from the Register Secretary..
After you have agreed a replacement sum you will need to supply photo's of the cars front, back, one each side, the inside and the
engine and boot. With the company I am with you will need to re-new these every three years.
When the car is insured for an agreed sum my insurer then returns my photos franked and stating its insured for £XXXXXXX.
This means that provided I am using the car within the terms of the policy should I incur a loss ie stolen, fire,or write off I will be able to recover whatever sum we had agreed.
 
Mine has been with Mannings for years.It has the S factory power hike, is a 97 car,has done 63 thou miles and is used a lot for trackdays. Mannings did not require photos etc on first application and £50k value was agreed five years ago and is still valid.My premium, including automatic trackday cover, is £300 and has been for 3 years.
Give them a go.
ps no connection etc.

Thanks to everyone for your help.
For Alan and anyone else who wanted to see a picture. I hope this works (The quality is not great I'm afraid. It is one I took using my phone).
