neutral  Fabrizio Zambuto: in questo caso non è questo il significato, (da Wikipedia):Write-off is also used in vehicle insurance to describe a vehicle which is cheaper to replace than to repair, sometimes colloquially referred to as being "totaled" (a total loss).

neutral  James (Jim) Davis: Never heard of "totalled" used like that. The UK colloquial is "Oh expletive, it is a total write-off". People use it without always knowing the accounting origins of the word.

potrebbe essere questo, ma la metto come ref e non come risposta:

In caso di sinistro totale (veicolo distrutto):

* Contattate il servizio “Gestione sinistri Mercury” al fine di comunicare le coordinate del garage ove il veicolo si trova immobilizzato.

potrebbe essere 'sinistro totale'
