assessor just been ... says he can get me £700 for it ..about 4 months tax left ..not worth buying back he said they'd charge me 5% ..so it would cost me £665 to buy back

 

Double check that mate, IIRC my bro was offered his GTi for £120 a few years back....

your better off removing the parts that have some value such as mods if they aren't claimed on the insurance

 

shame your not going to be repairing it i have a tailgate and rear cluster both spotless in that colour

 

took photos of inside the boot ( spare wheel )...floor is creased

he def said ... " I'll get you £700 for it " ... I had said 5 mins before that I'd be happy with £400ish

some one went into the back of my mates skyline, insurance said if they wrote it off they would pay out 3 grand if he wanted to buy it back they would chage 900 quid. so he would have had his car back and 2100 quid to fix it.

 

in the end he got the insurace company to fix it and it cost them 2860 quid (they provided receipts) and the colour match was kack!

 

i dont think insurance will charge much for an escort.

well...got the Legal & Technical Assessors report...good for a laugh >>

repair costs..blah..blah blah......... reasonable labour charge would be ..£861.90 ..paint and materials would amount to £332.82 ...cost of new parts approx £780.25 ...specialist/sundry charges £15.00...vat £343.23 ..giving a total repair cost of ....£2338.20 ...subject to undisclosed damage

 

 

i think there could be more damage as i've been out this morning to remove chrome door handles ( soon to be up for sale ) ..and both back doors wont open / shut without a bit of force so possibly a twisted back end ?
