    Most likely it will just be sold of at an auction so the insurance co can recoup some money. Youm 'may' get the option to buy it back on the cheap but I wonder what sort of condition it would be in.

    My brother bought back his old WB van that was stolen. Took a fair amount of rooting around with the insurance co though. They were less than helpful. All I can suggest is trying to keep things as simple as possible for them.

    I thought that was only for repairable write-offs? Just ring them up and ask the question. It would be a general question that you wouldnt need you g/f info for. :)

    the car was stolen 18 months ago, insurance payed it out, i highly doubt they will offer it back to you, in any one's records, that car doesnt exist anymore. i doub it will be in good condition anyomre, probably gonna blow more smoke than a coal fired train.
