Halifax-Offer for settlement

A while ago I posted on this forum that ,after recieving my sarn info from the Halifax,I found evidence that they had witheld my property from sale for 2 years with a veiw to leasing it to a housing company. After much to-ing and fro-ing of banter with their solicitors I presented them woth my findings.After quite a while I have ,Today, recieved a letter from them explaining that after much consideration ,they admit my findings and are prepared to knock off the total amount of costs incurred during the period between repo and sale, some £5700.As a further good will gesture they are prepared to accept £5000 as a full and final payment for the remaining £27000 to 'more than offset the interest incurred'. Am i right in saying that now that they have admitted thier mistake that this case will not be able to go to court because they will have no firm figures concerning sales or dates? Also if they had sold the property when they could have,then the voluntary 6 year period would have passed 2 years ago,is this worth persuing?Now that they are on the run should i offer a full and final payment of say£800 or hold out to try and get the debt written off completly? Any comments gratefully recieved Thankyou in advance
