Update from today's phone call.
I said I had averaged at £2200 over 8 cars of similar/lesser spec.
He checked again (01-05 I might add) and got £1630 pre accident value.
I tried to explain about there being a mk1 and mk2 but he said the system only had one in there.

So offered £1630 they take the car.
Or
£1205 and I keep the car.

Then offered £1700 and they take the car.
Or
£1105 and I keep the car on a cat D (cat doesn't really bother me as I'm not looking to sell)

He said if he went online he's sure he could find them for less than that price but again didn't seem to understand the two types thing.
Said optional extras like heated seats, climate control electric rear windows don't count in aftermarket value.
Only in presales new car value.

Don't know what to do now.
Don't know if its a fair price.
Any advice?
Thanks.
