Well finally agreed on a Settlement amount with insurers today not quite what I wanted but close enough to be able to buy another and redo the build

Just waiting for a figure on the salvage

Does anyone have experience of what sort of percentage this usually is???

I have to say I have had superb support and help liaising with the insurers from Luke at A-Plan in thatcham and would highly recommend them.

Anyway just a short wait till Friday to find out the salvage cost 2008 110 2.4 XS Utility (Hagrid)

My salvage cost on the MB was about 45% of the value they placed on the vehicle, but I think this all depends on the value they feel it will make at auction.

I have heard of cases where the insurers have "gifted" the salvage to the owner as its more hassle for them to get rid of it than its worth to them, but I doubt you'll be that lucky. 2007 - Stornoway Grey 90 XS SW - Gone

Out of interest what does 34% equate to in terms of £££ ( that's if you don't mind my asking, if you do, then no probs) 1999 Defender TD5 110

About 7k

They are fixed percentages so no haggling on the buy back which is frustrating and annoying 2008 110 2.4 XS Utility (Hagrid)
