Never ever, ever add it up it will give you nightmares :shock:

When I had my bikes nicked last year the limit on my insurance was £1000 per bike :? so I thought I was going to lose out big time on some of the road bikes :cry:

But they just asked me how many bikes ? Then paid the maximum on them all even though I told them some of them weren't worth anywhere near that much :shock:

It paid for our loft conversion

would be a pretty difficult task but an interesting experiment to work out the value of out retrobike collections as a group! i bet it is a shockingly high figure.

Probably not actually. If we pooled together all of our retrobike goodies and put them up for sale, there'd be no-one to buy them.

I tried to work out an insurance value (based on new price) for my collection, I stopped counting when I hit £14k and realised it would cost me more to insure them all than it costs me to insure my car by a factor of 2.



Obviously if I had to "liquidise" these "assets" they wouldnt realise anything like that amount.
