<£200?
Probably less than the standard excess on her policy, never mind any voluntary.
Could cost her that again in increased premiums...
Any sense, she'll pay out of her own pocket and close everything off ASAP.

Doesn't include the damage done to the rider though does it. Assumption being, at this point, that they are having to pay for any & all medication presribed as a result of this.

I contacted a soliciter, the quote from the shop is only for new wheels and derailer. My mudguards have broken and my helmet is cracked :/

You'd have to replace your helmet after such an incident anyway. As far as the manufacturers are concerned its done its job.

Don't some manufacturers offer a swap?

True. I didn't say the OP should agree to it, just that if the driver was offerred the option, they'd be daft not to take it.
