Agreed.
I thought that a full respray, new glass, sensors, trims and alloys would have been cheaper.
Still expensive... but cheaper than a write-off.
Insurance disagreed, and for me the difference does not exist... the car is new, it needs to be returned to how it was 10 days ago, and however it was done was not something I cared too deeply about once I knew it was hitting my excess and was an actual insurance claim.
Amazing that somehow it made sense to write off. I would have thought 10-15k would have paid for a better than new respray and any parts that need replacing.
Glad you got it sorted though!
