So, I was the proud owner of a 2004 330i, 6 speed with perfomance package. Used to belong to my ex-Father in Law and it only had 16,000 miles on the clock when I bought it off him. Currently it has 56,000 miles on the clock.
Notice I said "was". Last week someone decided to drive in to the back of me at speed which basically wrecked the entire back end and the force of the impact pushed me into the car in front causing damage there as well. It is currently at the insurance assessor who is basically going to write it off as the repairs are estimate to be more than 80% of the car value.
Question, what do you esteemed members consider to be the value of such a car in good condition. Before the wreck it was pristine - no damage at all to the exterior or interior, garage kept and smoke free. I received several offers over the years (the last one was 6 months ago) for anything between $10 and 12,000 but I fear the insurance company will go very low and I want to go back to them with something when that happens.
Here are the after photos. It is very tough to see the car in such a state:
Any help you guys can give me would be very much appreciated.
