So with £3600 worth or damage no fault applied this week what's the chance of repair/right off... Hmm...

Many thanks for the quote, much appreciated!

insurance value up to 60% or so as viable for repair so yours will be scrapped with that amount of damage and they might offer you about £3500

Almost certainly a write off. Don't rely on these values for settlement though as the replacement value will be higher.

Beaten to it...

I would suggest that £3500 is way too low as a settlement. Get onto Autotrader and find similar age/spec/mileage cars to support a replacement price. Whilst the figures provided are the true valuation you are not in a position to purchase a vehicle at these prices.

[Silver940]

Yeah already had a look on autotrader and similar age/spec/mileage is about 6k. Makes the 3600 repair more viable but I suspect not the figure the insurance companies base the right off value on.

Cheers again!

And here's the damage...

Heard yesterday, it is being repaired.

Good news, didn't need the hassle and expense of replacing it!
