Help Needed Urgently

Hi All

I had no idea where to post this so if its in the wrong place sorry .

To cut a long story short in suing Black Horse as I was sold a faulty car, This has been going on for 4 years so I decided it was time to involve the courts so I put a claim through a small claims court, The defendant has not replied so I sent a judgment. I have since received a letter from Black Horses solicitors asking me for a breakdown of the amount I am claiming.

Well as I have never done this before I claimed the full amount of the agreement, which I think we are owed but if I put this on the letter will I get the money back or I was also considering breaking it down as follows:

£950.00 Repairs

£300.00 Recovery costs

£200.00 Cost of transport

£150.00 Loss of earnings

£1000.00 Compensation.

£2100.00 Cost of a new vehicle.

I would like to maximise the amount I get back from them but have no idea how to break this down any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
