Depending on you insurer, but they usually start having second thoughts once it hits around 50% of the car’s value.Was there any damage to the rear suspension? Did the mongrel stop and leave details?Best of luck with it Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/46403-smashed-car/#findComment-689092 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Large Member Member 564 Member For: 18y 2m 25d Location: Brisvegas Posted 06/06/08 07:54 AM Share Posted 06/06/08 07:54 AM Well mine was 4500, but they still havent fixed the diff... which is worse now, so it will cost more than it would have if they did it right in the first place. They also now have to redo 80% of the other work, since the quality of repair was sh*t.So I would say yours would be closer to 8-10g.Felix Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/46403-smashed-car/#findComment-689112 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Large Member Member 564 Member For: 18y 2m 25d Location: Brisvegas Posted 06/06/08 08:03 AM Share Posted 06/06/08 08:03 AM Sorry, I'm a little drunk and sitting at home feeling sorry for myself... didnt even say sorry to see whats happened. f*cking sucks!I'm thinking that if there is chassis damage then they might. Whos your insurance with? Do they even straighten chassis these days?Felix Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/46403-smashed-car/#findComment-689115 Share on other sites More sharing options...
