You tell them the damage they type it into their computer and an algerruthum works it out. I think these days if the damage is 35% or more of the value of the car they won't repair it on old cars as not with it.
As I am going through the third party insurers they are being very helpful and willing to pay more as no solicitors costs or ambulance chasers costs either.

That's the best way to do it IME (it's certainly what I would have tried to do)!
It does seem a shame that it is getting written off with so little damage, but if you get a decent valuation that's the most important bit. And as you said in an earlier post it means you can look for a 3 litre! :lol:
