Oh dear how did that happen? Who is doing the repair for you? Any decent TVR biased body shop should be able to sort that so long as there is no structural damage. Adrian at Central has just done a re-spray and re-trim for me, knows his tuff and looks the dogs danglies

Regarding the accident lets just say I tried to avoid a car that was traveling at in excess of 120mph and the car just spun and I was in the middle lane of the M20 doing 60mph

Yes the guy doing the repairs is a TVR owner and has done a couple before and from the pictures he has done a good job. He says that the insurance people should agree to repairs so I will just have to wait and see, I hope they do though

Remember - it's your car and you can insist they they repair it up to (I think) 90 or 95% of the full market value of the car !! Do not give in - check ur policy small print and good luck !

Looked at the policy and it does not say what the limit is

You are so far wrong, Insurance company will pay up to about 70% because the salvage will be worth 10/20% of the cars worth.
I will be repairing the car for Gary as long as the insurance agree with the estimate,
If the car is written off Gary always has the option of keeping the salvage & repairing it private.
It would only need a new MOT to put back on the road.
In my opinion his car should be ok,
