Will it be written off car?

Question

Long story short, I got sandwiched between 2 cars today (nice for my first day back at uni).

There is damage to the front and back of my car, looked as though my radiator was pushed towards the engine and the bonnet was crumpled up. And the back bumper and boot were pushed in in the middle about 20cm. The car still drove though (I had to get it off the road somehow) but I had it towed just to be sure.

I'm insured for $6600, the tow truck guy said it looked to be about $4500 worth of damage. So a $2100 difference for them to fix or to replace.

Is it likely insurance will opt to fix it, or write it off?

Answer 1

its totaled

Answer 2

If it's 4500 damage, they will fix it. Call your insurance so an adjuster can come out and make the decision. Sorry for your bad luck today.

Answer 3

usually 80% and up of book value they will total the car

Answer 4

they will more than likely write it off.
