They are trying to w/o my 75
Last Thursday, a silly women reversed into my rear door whilst I was parked up.. LV are now saying my 75 is a total loss and offered my £1000 for a fully loaded 04 Contemporary Se.. or £850 and keep car as Cat C.. 😡.
Anyone had any luck in overturning this. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...661ff623a0.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
It's a Rover unfortunately they're always gonna write it off as they don't repair them due to being a defunct manufacturer. You can appeal it but they'll still not want to repair it. Tell then you're happy for a repair to be done using good quality second hand parts.

Damn, it looks a very nice example. Sorry to hear about the accident. I do hope you save your lovely car.

I tried the repaired with good quality second hand Parts, they wouldn't agree.. daft thing is the body shop use a PDR anyway paint work isn't damaged and no creases in steel.. Quote:
Cheers mate it's not over yet Bet she's just looked at a few manual petrols.. This is what I've sent them as they only go by autotrader apparently https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9bad7d5747.pnghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9df8c5aa8c.png Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Gutted for you Nigel,
Having seen how stunning your car is I wouldn't accept their offer whatsoever. Fight your corner Sir. It wasn't your fault that it was damaged so I would be giving the insurance company what for ! |
Cheers Jeff, 😁 it doesn't help I have a lot on at moment and am really stuck without it 😥

Try telling them you will accept a cash sum in lieu of repairs , and will then repair the car yourself . No Cat C classification then :}
I was trying this route recently with the wife's ZR , which had been similarly damaged in similar circumstances , and they suddenly made us an offer we couldn't refuse so it went . It was collected by Copart and sold at their next auction as a Cat C for £125 . All it needed for a quick fix was a rear door . |
following, my disco has just been NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- ended, engineers been so just waiting on the decision.
hope you get a good result mate it looks like a cracking car |
Are LV your insurers or the other persons? - if they are yours then try dealing direct with the other party insurers, i am sure they will be more than happy to do you a cash in lieu.

Good luck with your claim Nigel looks a stunning example, with that reg I thought I was looking at my saloon at first! My saloon is a pearl black ZT with my reg ending LGF (next but one from yours) bought from a guy in Reading about 8 years ago!
