On another note you can refuse the vehicle to be written off its a long process of arguing with the insurance company. but I have seen it done before.
Also if it turns out that the 3rd party is uninsured don't worry your still covered. all you do is contact MIB stating you was hit by uninsured 3rd they will then take your case and sort everything out better than any insurance company then due the 3rd party for there cost
If you get quotes to fix the vehicle yourself/using your local mechanic and it is cheaper for them than writing the vehicle off then they may accept a settlement payout of that amount.
Unfortunately everyone is correct, that vehicle will be written off by insurers. They are obliged to use new, genuine parts. A new, genuine door from peugeot plus labour is probably not very cheap.
