Check as I haven't looked at this in years and things may well have changed…
If it's category A do the insurance company not retain the vehicle / ownership and it's crushed?
If it's B I think you may be able to negotiate retaining ownership but whatever the salvage value agreed upon is deducted from your overall payout.
You can salvage / use parts from it, but not the shell and you will eventually have to provide proof that it was crushed.
From Cat C down it's OK to repair and return it to the road, but must be to an approved standard / inspected.
I'll ignore the last sentence!
