    Just saw the this thread. Dont let the insurance company push you around, as Will said take it to a BMW dealer and get a valuation through them. Also contact a private valuator and get them to do a valuation of it (make sure to tell them to send the invoice to the insurance co) Make sure you are with the car when it is getting valuated and point out all the good things about the car, try to claim that it has some form of sentimental value and really try and talk it up. I was in a similar situation (Similar damages, slightly worse) with mr plod and I managed to squeeze 7 g's out of them. Its all up to how often you follow up. If it was your f**k up i would expect your insurance co may write the car off but seeing as you are not at fault they should have to fix the car to its previous condition. That is what the insurance companies are there for. The damage in those photos is minimal and if properly manuevered you could get it fixed for under 2k and keep the change. Also did they want to give you 3k and keep the car? Screw that. Fight them. Just dont be mean to the old man/lady, its the insurance company that are being f**kwits. I bet whoever did it feels really bad. + being nice to the person that hit you means they may stick in the good word for you...

    Started off on the 23rd and went up to Ahipara till the 27th, got absolutely pummeled every day and went to suss out a few of the local (Kaitaia) pubs. On the 27th i did the mission from the far north down to Pauanui. Stopped in Thames and bought a whole pile of Alcohol. (You could buy a car with what we spent) On arriving in Pauanui i was removed from the road by the Hawaii 5-0 for having my rear lights tinted, after a 30 min argument with the cop i had it cleaned it off and i was sweet. For the first night there were about 10 or so of us (Bach had beds for 22) first night there i spent drinking a bottle of two worms tequila and 2 boxes of coronas. I managed to do it without chucking. amazing. coma'd out around 3am. Got up the next morning around 10. paralitic. i couldnt stand up. head spinning etc. went back to sleep and got up again about 1. Went down to the cafe and got a all day breakfast eggs benedict. Ate a piece of toast and couldnt do anymore. Drove half way back to the bach and had to pull over in the middle of the road to chuck up all the the said nights alcohol and the toast. Went back, slept for another few hours then drove to the mount. Bad Desicion. I got back at ten that night with a smashed headlight, cracked sub and managed to rip all the mounting points off the tec 1 front. Three more days of extreme drinking went on and new years eve we shot people at the surf club with a giant slingshot and water bombs. (Highly reccomended) Left Pauanui on the 2nd for the long trip back to Ahipara, stayed there for 2 more weeks fanging around on the bikes and fishing, beach drifting in my mates silvia etc etc way back payed Will a visit and met Gary and Graham (I love you house Will!)

    Now im back at tech and it sucks. Well that was a bit of a novel but hey, you asked for it!
