I am waiting for the accessor of the insurers to call out and look at it.

If my car is possibly worth €5000 today and the repair €3000 though the car can drive from A to B, what are the insurers likely to do?

Does it appear to be a possible write off?

My experience is if it is beyond economical repair or in the year it was bought they write it off. However from what you have described I wouldn't be surprised if they put it through a recommended repairer depending o who is the liable party. Lot of different factors. Quiz the assessor though. Dont take their word as gospel.

Who is the insurer?
