What does everyone think, wrote off or not? 
was told by a guy at the scene that it would not be worth it to repair and would most likely be wrote off...

what do people think i would get if it was wrote off?
i have an estimated value with brentacre when i took out the policy and i said 2200, now do the thrid party have to honour this or will the payout be based on book price?

theyl probably offer book price. so for example they say theyl give u £1750, tell them you want £2000 and they usually just say yes.

I think that looks repairable...
Quarter and Sill Damage.
Obviously you would have to have the rear axle checked and boot floor. Is there any other damage, Scratch on the Door?, Wheel need replacing? Maybe that would swing it into being a write off if so.
