Just got off phone to loss adjusters, spoke to a fellow petrol head, gave him a lesson on the range and values.

He's going to speak to engineer as could find an Se Cdti auto under £2.5k.. said it was borderline to authorise repair.. if not will do his best to arrange cash in Lieu..

Usually insurance companies will write vehicles off at around 75% of the cars retail value but, if i remember correctly, they can authorize to 100% they just don't like to. As for not using 'green' parts, i would imagine they will have to - i can't think there will be too many new doors kicking about.
Fingers crossed they will just cave in & repair it - just keep the pressure on.

Steve.
