      Clearly you disapprove of the salvage industry and the repair of salvaged vehicles so I'm not sure why you are watching a salvage channel. The insurance companies that you say charge more are the same companies that sell the salvage for repair. Insurance companies in the UK work with various auctions and agents to market the salvage and sell it to both trade and the general public. They recover millions of pounds per week selling salvage for repair and if they stopped every ones premiums would increase. Like it or not this industry is here to stay with insurance companies continually looking to increase recycling and reuse of damaged cars and parts to improve there green credentials. I can give many reasons why It IS a good idea to buy a repaired insurance write off and they are based on fact and over 30 years in this industry. We work hard to earn a honest living giving people a quality product and value for money with complete clarity.

    This was always going to be a top motor. The top spec Astra Estates are a great SH buy. The 1.6 petrol is not the fleet choice, so it usually has had a private owner, invariably low miles 👍 Although designed to be repaired, you and Rob make it look easy, but there is a lot of skill involved, one wrong move with the dozer and it is curtains! Some lucky person is going to get a very nice top end Astra Estate, in the right colour, at an incredible price. Well done guys 👍😎
