If your insurer already labelled the vehicle as a write-off after hail damage, you still have options. We buy vehicles classed as total-loss, flood or hail-damaged and provide a straightforward sale path without repair delays.
| Damage type | How it affects value |
|---|---|
| Severe hail panel damage | Reduces resale for road use; appeal to salvage and parts markets. |
| Glass and trim damage | Lower repair cost than structural damage; better residual value. |
| Structural/frame write-off | Typically classified as salvage or non-repairable by insurers; sold for parts or rebuild markets. |
Every offer reflects the vehicle’s overall condition, market demand for parts, and location. For a quick sale, submit your damage details and photos.
