Car Update
I got a call last Thursday afternoon from the assessor dealing with my claim for the accident on 20th March, and he told me he has so far been unable to contact the other driver's insurers, but he thought from what I'd told them that it would probably be resolved in a phone call when he did get though to them. However, I still haven't heard any more on this.
I also got a call the same afternoon from the engineer assessing the damage to the car, and as expected it was a total loss. However, the valuation he gave me for the car was, shall we say, very acceptable 
On Saturday we went to the UK Assistance site in Salford where the Micra was to collect our belongings from the car before it got broken up for salvage.
On Sunday we went to RRG Altrincham to look at the Avensis, which was top of our shortlist for a new car. We were offered a used 2006 T3-X 2.0 litre diesel hatchback (the model we were after) with 6,000 miles on the clock for £16,500. I think they're having a laugh.
This evening we ordered a brand new Avensis (same spec) for under £15,800 from drivethedeal.com.
