I had a motor accident which has resulted in my Land Rover being written off. I gather it is being treated as a "knock for knock".
From the comments of the insurers I get the impression that they have a contract with a dealer who takes all such vehicles. I am a bit concerned that I won't be given the usual option to purchase the written off vehicle which I would like to keep for spares. I did that on the one occasion I had a similar accident and was able to buy a cheaper vehicle, then swap engines etc. to end up with something quite respectable.
What is the usual procedure and do I have any rights in this matter? I can see nothing in the policy which gives the insurer the right to insist on retaining the written off vehicle, but maybe I have missed something?
