Cant believe they have called to write this off.
My Neighbour has a 9 year old Mazda with 189k on the clock that got rear ended. Bumper, Crash bars, light spare wheel floor pan. Now they have the work offered at £2000. That age of vehicle the amount of work etc in putting this back to what it should be most would have seen this as a write off.
Insurers have somehow valued that car at £4000 therefore 50% of the value of the vehicle and will be getting fixed. That to me is just madness.

Yup, a rather scabby one with a knackered engine, but should give me all the parts I need to get mine tip-top again ;)
