Hey all,
Maybe an important question after a car accident last Wednessday. So it's been a long story, let's keep it short: There was busy traffic on the road, there were two roads on my right side, on the first road the line of cars stopped in time. After the first bigger car on the second road an old men came out with a speed of
25 mph, hitting the corner of my bumper on the right side. There were only four meters left before the accident, so I stopped as fast as possible but yeah... the nightmare happened.
After all drama had been solved, the police told me if I wanted to move the car so the engine gave "one click" after starting and that's it. For anyone who wants to read further; last Friday the car was declared "total loss", the price of repairing the bumper and all damaged material came up around €2000,- (
$2.198,00 USD), that's €947 (
$1.040,75 USD) higher then the car's price today.
Is anybody familiar with the Hyundai Excel 1.3? I'd know that it is a popular car for students like me.
For the damage, see picture below.
