Hi Gwilym, now obviously you WONT be claiming this through your insurance...
it'll be claimed through his....

You DON'T want them to write this off as you won't be able to get salvage as
it's been claimed from his insurance...

You should get a 2nd opinion with the repairs (and you ARE legally allowed
this) as the first estimate may just be enough to push you over the "line"
in between a repair and a write off..

Oh and btw, DONT use Elephant for mini's... they are the worlds worst!!!!
You need to get yourself an "agreed evaluation" which you can get from most
reputable insurers for about £15 to £20 a year... (try lancaster or HIC),
that way you don't get shafted.if something like this happens again
**hopefully it wont**

All the best and I sincerley hope you get it all sorted out.
