Realistic valuation for total loss VRS

Not really tbh mate BUT i had an insignia courtesy car for 2 weeks and that was like a boeing 737, the mondeo seems smaller than the insignia. Suppose if i went straight from my octavia to the mondeo it probably would of. The cabin is alot more roomy when i have all the kids in the car tho but its boot space is smaller than the octavia. -

I went for the diesel. Not sure i could justify the £490 a year to tax a petrol. Nice car though plenty of little trick bits on it. -

Now dealing with TLSS in terms of final settlement. Rejected the first offer waiting on a second. Anyone dealt with them before? How long does it usually take them? Never been in this situation its all new to me -
