Hello good people, my first post and it’s an insurance problem.
My Merc a C200CDi /04 was effectively sandwiched in a supermarket car park a fortnight ago.
I was parked in bay when my MB was hit on the offside front and pushed five feet into a Ford which also suffered severe damage.

The third party’s insurers have admitted liability but have not given approval to the repair workshop (MB approved) for some reason.
I suspect they wish to write off my MB as the quote was £6000 – I strongly disagree and as it was a No Fault Claim on my part am pressing them for a return to pre-accident state.
I have only owned the MB for eight months and it’s my first one after spending over a year searching for this particular vehicle, brilliant silver, low mileage, one owner before me and even the brand of tyres I prefer, with absolutely no rust.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to a method of obtaining a decent outcome to this situation, can I speed up the lack of response of the third part’s insurance company?
Thanks for any input - Swanee59
