    Yes for the type of claim the OP is making eg Property and the MIB will not cover the element of the claim that her own Insurance covers

    I'm not totally understanding of this. Do you mean if the police can provide reg no of car, she could make a claim on her insurance for her car (she's fully comp) and the MIB could maybe cover her excess loss any costs incurred on renewal of insurance due to loss of her no claims?
    How do you know it was a 4x4 if it has not been recovered?

    One of the neighbours saw some of it though window. It left with only 3 tyres also, so I guess it will have been found.

    She's only going back tomorrow, so hopefully find out of neighbours what they know.
