Hi Bill,
Very sorry to hear about the car.
The body on the H4 isn’t structural like it is on the Saloon and H4 and as a
result it’s a lot thinner.
Having reverse engineered (taken the body and chassis apart) a H4 recently, i
was surprised at how few places the body is fixed to the chassis, and the
chassis doesn’t extended past the rear suspension beam and shock mounts.
So I’m not surprised the rear crumpled like that.
But, as others have said, it is repairable.
Since it was a 3rd party accident it won’t matter if the 3rd party insurance
company write it off.
They shouldn’t ask for the car, they will just pay out the market value and you
can decide if you want to repair it or not.
Even if the claim goes through your insurance first they will normally offer
you the salvage for a scrap value.
One thing though, if you do want to consider repairing it (or even selling it
as is) then get the car back straight away, i assume it’s been recovered to a
storage depot at the moment.
You should be able to reclaim the cost of the recovery back to your house from
the 3rd party insurance company, i have done in the past.
Once the car disappears into the insurance company storage system it will be
much harder to get back, and extra or water damage is likely to occur.
That’s from past personal experience anyway.
Jim

The pictures don’t show the damage to anywhere near it’s true extent, when you
see it in the flesh though it looks pretty grim, I’d agree it would be
repairable but it’s whether the insurance companies would allow it to be done

Hi
Doesnt look so bad!
All looks repairable to me. Assuming wheels all point in the right directions
and nothing bent underneath.
