When my SIL's car was written off the insurers offered a "book value" but that was far lower than you could buy an equivalent replacement for.
It was in the early 2000's and she wasn't internet savvy so I trawled the local adds for the same car, similar mileage and service history and she presented the findings to the insurance co and got the offer uplifted by more than 50%.
It may be worth doing the same, bearing in mind that you may still want the car written off so don't find anything more than the repair costs!
