That sounds suspiciously like they were uninsured. You should follow that up. Were there any witnesses? Did they give a name and address? Did you note the registration number (if so, there's an official website which will tell you if their vehicle is insured).

If LV won't co-operate, I understand that you can "buy back the salvage" for a nominal price. That allows you to keep your car and repair it as you wish. Of course you won't get the bill paid unless you cann track down the third party's insurers and hold them responsible.

It's a minefield. I sympathise.
