Had a Xantia rear my Disco on Tuesday, the insurance company sent an assessor out today, and he thinks it's probably a borderline as to weather the repair is financially viable. The only damage is to the rear bumper, every bit of plastic in contact with the bumper, a small dent in the rear quarter panel, a dented tailpipe and a dent in a front spotlight ( pushed into the car in front).
Having googled, I think it would probably be classified as a CAT D write off. If it is, and I buy it back from the insurance company, do I need to get it MOT,ed before I can use it on the road again?
The Xantia obviously disintergrated on impact.
