Don't let the car be towed away, you will have less chance of getting it back! if it is written off it will be recorded as cat d possibly c but i doubt it. once written off the insurance co then pay you out an agreed value, the car then becomes their property, you then need to ask to buy the salvage from them. They will usually sell on to a salvage company , hence why salvage companies exist. I would personally communicate through your company at first, thats what you pay your premium for, their services! Whats that old saying…. 'The best person to buy your car is an insurance company!' If you feel their valuation is too low, collect any paperwork you have for recent expenditure and any evidence of similar cars for sale. At the end of the day it's not your fault, why should you suffer any loss

It should end up cat d which means beyond economical repair due to age basically, Don't let anyone remove the car to a repairers etc as once there you won't get it back, once they start charging storage thats it! The ins company will assess the damage, then should make you an offer,you then ask about buying the salvage. They will cancel insurance and you will have to get VIC check once MOT'd I can't see you ending up out of pocket though!

I would go down the insurance route, let them decide value of car against cost of repair. I suspect beyond economical repair they should offer you a settlement figure, then ask if you can buy back the salvage, most insurance companies allow you to, a few won't
