They've just looked at age of the car and the book price and figured it's cheaper to write it off than repair it. Guess the book price of a 2001 WRX is nothing like what the car is actually worth.
My civic has just had a bumper and lower tailgate replaced, parts come painted from Honda so minimal labour costs and the bill to the insurance company was £1400 quid plus a weeks hire of a Volvo V70. You can see why they probably think it's not worth repairing.
