i know i wish i had just bought another corolla and transfered every thing into that one would have been cheaper and a lot easyer

sucks bout the car though i think its bullshit that some one else damages your sh*t and you suffer from it
what ever happened to you break it you buy it same rule should aply you smash a done up car the car should be fix the same as it was befor

yeah i hope it shouldnt be that bad with the looks of it.. i just need informations from the insurance company on what exactly was broken so i can write down a list to look for second hand parts... i will also update this by monday or tues when they get onto track.. and i will ask them what is going on, i still dont know how much im getting payed yet.. i hope they wont pay me with stock market value cause thats fcked .. and your right..its VERY effed when someone damages your car and you sufffer from it

dstocks wrote:Hey,

Dont rule out buying it back and fixing it. The damage from the photos wasnt that bad, so it would be easy to get back on the road. The insurance company would have quoted brand new parts for the repair and thats why it was written off. If you get someone to do it with second hand panels and parts, you could very well come out ahead.

To give you an idea of how you can get the best price, one of the Canberra members (muchacho32) had his car stolen and run into a tree. He was offered 4K for the wreck. He ended up passing up on that price (It was a little high IMO). The car then went to Pickles Damaged car auctions. I ended up winning the auction at $2300. Now if you can get an indication of how much it would cost to repair it yourself, and take this from your payout from the insurance company, that will give you an indication of how much you have to buy the car back with. You can then either take their buy back offer, or wait till it goes to auction and buy it back from there.

Hope this helps

this is hella helpful!! && now this is taken to my consideration.. but then again.. if i get payed maybe say 11,000? or more then 10,000 then i still wont be as upset .. i shal get a another fto... and a good looking one aswell.. i needed upgrade in a fto...
low k atleast way lower then mine.. around 110,000 no more then that and done up and also is manual.. Mivec.. because i dont want my car to die out on me again with under the hood isuess.. thanx dstocks
