Which two write-off categories are considered capable of adequate repair but deemed uneconomical relative to overall vehicle value?

The correct answer indicates that Categories S and N are classified as vehicles that can be adequately repaired but are deemed uneconomical in relation to their overall value. This classification is part of a broader categorization system used in the UK to denote the severity of damage and the feasibility of repair.

Category S is designated for vehicles that have sustained structural damage, yet they can be repaired to a safe and roadworthy condition but may not be financially justifiable considering the car's market value. Similarly, Category N refers to vehicles that have non-structural damage; they can also be repaired to a roadworthy state, but again, the cost of repairs may exceed the vehicle’s value. Thus, both these categories fulfill the criteria of being capable of repair while also being uneconomical based on the valuation.

In contrast, other categories, such as A and B, indicate vehicles that are unrepairable or only suitable for parts, while categories like C and D pertain to older classifications where damage levels and decisions around repair might not align with the scenario of being repairable yet uneconomical. Categories E and F do not exist in the current classification system. Understanding these distinctions is vital for determining the financial viability of repairing damaged vehicles within the motor insurance context
