Not really. We are talking about the past. My evidence trumps his. No value was indicated in the insurer communication in the past. But the value is indicated now.
Insurance fraud?

A saner person might have stopped to think about how much they actually sold them for, before shooting their mouth off with that comment, but I think we all know you're not that person...
But you said they valued it at half of what it was worth! Comedy gold from you again.
Yes, they did. I looked at the value only recently hence I could tell a low ball. Past insurance was prior to that.But you said they valued it at half of what it was worth! Comedy gold from you again.

You said you bought lots. Surely that would indicate good deal/profit? Is my earlier observation of your business acumen more correct?A saner person might have stopped to think about how much they actually sold them for, before shooting their mouth off with that comment, but I think we all know you're not that person...

Why don't you stop digging holes ?
Spoke to a friend yesterday who was conned into leasing a tesla.
His insurance has doubled this year.

I said I'd bought "enough". Learn to read!
Depends what I paid for them, doesn't it?
From your previous two statements... "no"...
It's a tale as old as time... (or at least, Nutjob's membership of this forum). It follows a well-worn pattern. He asks a question, people more knowledgeable than him respond, and then he wastes many pages of pixels making a fool of himself trying to tell them they're wrong...
You haven't provided any.
AFAIAW, Tesla are an outlier in that regard, as structural elements are "gigacast", glued, rivetted.
They are repairable, but at greater faff, time, and expense.
The "traditional" manufacturers build their EVs - drivetrains apart - in a similar fashion to their ICE cars, and so crash damage is no more troublesome than previously.
Yes, that's exactly it. Plus Tesla have a very poor reputation for parts supply, so people waiting for repairs end up spending a lot longer in courtesy cars. To be fair, not all of them use glued-together batteries either. I think Tesla are starting to realise that it was a stupid idea now. Plus, of course, crash repair shops are having to learn new skills and techniques - just like they did when cars with metallic paint, aluminium structural components, windscreen-mounted sensors and airbags started to appear.
My son and his wife went away with some of their mates and their wives. One of them had a Tesla. There was no charger at the property they were staying at but apparently it could be charged through a normal plug but would take ages. He pulled it close to the house and plugged it in through the kitchen window. Just as he had done that, they heard a rattle and a tile fell off the roof and went through the windscreen but it had also clipped the front pillar. It had to go back to Tesla for a specialised repair as his insurance company insisted on it.

No. A good business man would buy low sell high.Depends what I paid for them, doesn't it?
Nutty and Regan will be along shortly, telling us that it was only a matter of time before the house had burned down anyway
