Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / RVs / April 2005New price for used Bonair BA700
Hi all. I'm new to this news group and to pop up trailers. I just purchased a 1986 Bonair BA700. It is in great condition and requires no work to go camping. I wanted to get some basic insurance for this trailer, but my insurance company wants to know the original new price for this trailer before they will even quote a price! Any idea how I can get this number? Anyone have an educated guess as to the original price? I'm in Ontario, Canada if it matters. Thanks in advance. I'm sure they don't have a clue either... I would forge one up! Did you go through your car insurance or a specialized RV insurance company. Usually, they would insure it from the buying price...not the original value ? here in Quebec, even the SAAQ (those emmiting our licence plates) don't have a clue on the values of RV (new or used...)

They wanted to know what we bought it for and the original new price. I am not aware of specialized RV insurance companies. I will need to ask around to see if they exist around here.

You came to the right place. $1,000CDN ...and you can QUOTE me on that. > Anyone have an educated guess as to the original price? Heck, mine is beyond a WILD guess, but you can still quote me on it. Stupid, jerkwater bureaucrats. Tell 'em $1k CDN. Sheesh! :\ JR That was my next option! I.e. make up a number. Crazy system where they would make the customer try and figure out a price for an object 19 years old before they would quote!

The company here in Quebec was called CGU... now I think it's AXA that covers it... but from what I can see, automobiles insurance figured that there was good money to do in the RV industry, so they now all offer it. Think it's time for me to re-negociate the cost. Mel Frank a écrit: > That was my next option! I.e. make up a number.

I don't recall what it was for a pop-up but it was quite cheap for an inexpensive one. I live in NS, as is my insurance broker, but I'm pretty sure the quote was from a company in Ontario. > Hi all. > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Thanks in advance. > The company I called quote based on its current value, and do so in > increments, $10,000/$25,000, etc. For an RV I was quoted $476 for a year for > a replacement value of up to $25,000.

Here in Manitoba, insurance is based on current replacement value. Our camper is in the $5,000 to $7,500 range, and it's costing us something like $125 per year for insurance and registration. Mind you, we have public insurance here.  SignatureGeoff & Kathy Central Canada Camping Club http://c4.irv2.com Reverse e-mail address to reply here, in Quebec, it's 300$ for my TT, insured for 16000$+tx. Insurance also includes 1M$ coverage in case the TT disconnects from the tow vehicule and hits lets say 5 mercedes and 2 Rolls Royce.... Also included is relocation in an Hotel and Car Rental if the RV and Tow Vehicule can't be used during a trip.

For the additional fire/theft/damage insurance, the insurance company is insisting on both original and current value. > here, in Quebec, it's 300$ for my TT, insured for 16000$+tx.
