Talking of value, what would you put on a policy as a reasonable value for my D2?

It has no accident damage, is well-maintained (though due a service soon - ideally down in Devon if MJ has a workshop slot available sometime) and has had the gearbox fluid/filter and cam belt etc. done during my ownership (maybe due again before long?)

Mileage, just over 100,000. (100333 to be precise)

Not an FE, built in April 2002 but not registered until October 2003 (weird) so had a 53 plate when I bought it.
Has 2 sets of 5 wheels (if it makes a difference), the OEM FL Avus 18's and FE 20's.

I'm waiting for my policy documents to arrive but if I look online they've assigned a nominal value of £1.00! The question wasn't asked of me.
