Why would an insurance company insist on breaking it?
Is it becasue they would get more for it as a sum of all its parts?
It seems such a shame to break such a beautiful car.

Thats it exactly, car is in perfect condition but thats the second one theyve done that to. I have an E36 M3 in the same boat, could easily be repaired but they will not release a log book.
Ill get a few pics. Thanks

Sorry but what does that mean in terms of why it needs to be broken up?

taken from car insrance websute
Category B - The Vehicle as a whole may not be resold or returned to road but parts may be sold. The vehicle is damaged beyond repair usually due to major structural damage. The DVLA will require a Notification of Destruction but parts are allowed to be removed and sold first.
According to the insurance loss category listing a Category B loss is quite serious so much so that the vehicle cannot be repaired but can only be sold for parts. Hence why they wont relase the log as well
