But *they* knew that on average such a vehicle of that age would result in a claim of £XXX and it's worth only £YYY so their sensible option is to write it off. Over thousands of claims it averages out in their favour.

I had a check up because of high pressure in my eyes ( now cured ) but the doc said, "you are over 60 so we'll put you on statins". "No you won't". "But statistically you might have a stoke". "Thank you' I'll take my chances, I'm more likely to get run over, I think".
