Salvage vehicles categories

The Association of British Insurers (ABI) updated its codes of practice in 2017.

With new vehicles, materials and technology, they needed to update their standards. Changes were made to salvage categories, making them more transparent and clear. Potential salvage buyers can now see the reason why the vehicle was written off.

Categories A and B still remain the same, categories C and D came to a end. Introduced to replace them is Categories S and N.

What are the salvage categories?

Category A
A written-off vehicle that must be destroyed and scrapped and cannot return to the road.
Category B
A written-off vehicle that must have its chassis destroyed and cannot return to the road, but parts can re-sold.
Category S
A written-off vehicle that has suffered structural frame or chassis damage, but is repairable.
Category N
A written-off vehicle that has non-structural damage or considered stolen-recovered.

What is category U or X salvage?

Category U – Used Unrecorded
Category U-Unrecorded are not part of ABI Code of Practice and denote vehicles not classified as a total loss under the code.

Category U vehicles are not classed as salvage, but there still is a chance that their damaged.

Category X – Stolen/Recovered
Category X vehicles have been subject to an insurance claim, but often have sustained minimal or no damage.
