Hello Huw,
The insurance industry uses the trade-in value and if that is less than the cost of repairs (usually judged by the manufacturer's full retail price for parts) then "writing off" follows. So what we club members think doesn't enter into it and retail values are unfortunately irrelevant.
£1,493 less the excess sounds pretty good to me as the damage doesn't sound serious.
Good luck!
