If the accident isn't your fault then the other insurance company can't write your car off, as far as i know?
Correct, but if you put the claim through your own insurance, it will be treated as a fault claim until the very end of the process, and your own insurance do have the power to write your car off.
You should always WARN before you post such pornography.
no offence tom (as i wouldnt exactly say no either) but thats utterly obscene considering what car you currently have.
Id highly expect them to replace it with another BMW saloon - say a 320 M sport. But a 335 coupe takes the mick !!
No wonder cars get written off so easily.

Very nice, Tom! 
i'd turn a 1 series down too. Not the same class of car.
but as already said i dont see how you could argue with something like a 320 sport. Same class of car, and only 50bhp or so difference with an e46 330i would be neither here nor there.

Anyone understand how Helphire's car classification works?
Impreza drivers get offered Jaguar X types, but my Legacy B4 RSK which was bigger, lighter, put out the same bhp as a UK spec Impreza STI was apparently deemed equivalent to a 1.8 diesel Vectra.
At least when I told them to get stuffed they replaced it with a 4WD Golf 2.0 GT TDI which was only a little under half as powerful (and heavier and had the wrong kind of 4WD and hateful DSG box.)
I'd hate to see how they'd cope with the Ceffy, though I hope it never comes to that.
(Cue Fox suggesting an LTI TX1)

I'd love it if they did it by insurance group.
I but you owners of group 20 cars wouldn't. That system would classify some gigantic brand new V12 German luxobarge to be the same as a clapped out Mk1* Impreza Turbo.
* I refuse to call it the "classic", it's a Mark 1, get over it.

No they offered me this first before anything else, just said if I couldn't find my own insurance it'd have to be a 1 series...for the sale of sorting my own insurance it was worth it,
ignoring the coupe bit, the 335i is only 1 model different from a 330i..That's their reasoning not mine!
I do wonder if my car will be written off though been told it's about 1500 quid of damage but a 4 WEEK wait on some of the parts!!! Will fin out later today/Monday
