Reply With QuoteYou can often buy the wrecked vehicle back from the insurance company.
That's if you wanted to repair it rather than replace it.

SubscriberWell, my D2 is no more. Bloody eastern grey took it out.
Insurance co. is keeping it and paying me money.
Annoying thing is that it has a Davis 140kW ecu.
There are no I.D markings on it so someone is going to get a nice surprise if they get it.
Another annoying thing is that the insurance co. takes the value of the remaining registration, leaving me to recover it from Vicroads.
A bit cheeky I thought.
Going to miss it after 390k km
This is $9500+ damage!!!

SubscriberThanks Scott, I had better start thinking about what to replace it with.
Not sure I need anything, the Defender is fine, but I have become used to comfort and gadgets.
The ABS saved me though, I had 2 wheels in the gravel and scraped a tree, I would have hit it nose first without the ABS.

Is it a manual?
I have a spare ecu for a manual. We could swap them over😎

SubscriberToo late mate...went in to be assessed, when declared total loss it belongs to the ins. company with all accessories fitted. I will only see it again if I buy it back.
They would have got a $1200 HF radio and autotuner if I hadn't removed them. Hard to remove the ecu at short notice :-)
Also it's an auto.
Cheers,

SubscriberWell, the car was gone from the repairers yard the day before I got the phone call.
Assessor talked a lot about how Rover parts are expensive. I reckon they grabbed it for spare panels.

Only if they are listed on the policy. I was at the yard unbolting roof racks, tow controller and other bits from my Patrol while the assessor was there. But for me it was the best way out of a Patrol with 430k on it and now I own a D2!
