Car looks like is gonna be write off :(

Buy it back for £100, break it if you can be bothered sitting on bits for weeks or sell it for spare/repairs and you'll prob get £200. Then just buy another, mk3 8v are worth nothing. Mine has 80k miles, full vw history and is really tidy. Cost me £600, decent cars but nothing special.

Well just spoke to the insurance again they are looking going to look at the links for the adverts i sent them and hopefully they will make a higher offer. I also spoke to the scrapy and they offered £180 if i run it in so think i might just do that unless anyone wants to make me a better offer. Will try get some pictures tomorrow from the bodyshop

mine got wrote off just before christmas after some kid decided to pull out infront of me in a terrible corsa with a ridiculous bodykit i got paid out for mine and when i aked to keep the car to break it for more £££ they took £50 off the settlement figure. So id imagine yours wouldnt be much different. dont accept your first settlement either by the way youll get more that way too!!

Right then fellow Golf lovers it has been great but it has come to the end of the line for me and my 8v to part terms, after fighting with the insurance company they refused to budge on the settlement offer of £650 and £100 salvage so I've bit the bullet and accepted, buying it back and and been offered £180 scrap would love to of kept it and fixed it back up or evan break it but don't have the time and need the money to replace with a *cough cough* 7 seater to fit all the off springs in

If anyone wants the car for more than the scrapy you have till monday eve to let me know if not off it goes.

Anyway its been great and thank you all for your feedback and help over the last year
