• any liability under this clause 14;

• We work with appropriately qualified experts who use a damage matrix to work out the estimated cost of repair to or replacement of the Vehicle, keys, any accessories or any Vehicle documents that are damaged or lost or stolen during the Rental Period (and any additional period until termination under clause 6.2 above). The damage matrix uses an average repair cost for the Vehicle Group selected, which takes account of different makes and models in that group. We work this out using:

  • the price of any original equipment manufacturer parts; and
  • loss of use (being the amount the Vehicle reduces in value and interest, costs and loss of rental).

• We will calculate the compensation due to us for any other damage by asking an appropriately qualified expert to provide an estimate of our losses resulting from the damage and such losses will include the reasonable fees charged to us by that expert. The expert will base that estimate on the reasonable cost of the repairs to the Vehicle necessary as a result of the damage. The estimate is intended to reflect the loss measured by the open market rate of repairs to the Vehicle at an appropriate dealership or authorised repair centre of the Vehicle. If the Vehicle is beyond economic repair then the estimate will be based on the reasonable market value of the Vehicle less the reasonable market rate salvage value for the Vehicle and may include any anticipated costs associated with writing off the Vehicle, registration and/or de-registration.
• If we believe that you are responsible for damage, we will notify you as soon as possible of the appropriate amount due as set out above and provide documentary evidence of the damage, and the expert’s findings, and estimate of cost of

• In addition to any compensation for damage caused to the Vehicle, the following administration fee (as set out in the table below) will be payable to cover our administration costs for dealing with the breach of contract and associated claim resulting from any damage and/or breach.

a damage claim is such that the administration fee set out below is likely to be exceeded, we will notify you in writing during the process of dealing with the damage claim.

 

Damage Claim Amount	Admin Fee
£0-£75.00	£15
