So apparently DH was stopped at a stop light and some guy rear ended him... He has been out of town this month working so have not had a chance to install our new foonfs into the car. (That guy's lucky cuz he would be buying me new ones if they were in there!) We were going to do it last week during a short few hour visit he had at home but didn't have the time. Cop already told DH he shouldn't worry that the other guy's insurance is going to have to cover fixing the car, (unless somehow they consider it totalled, in which case we put more work into the car this year then what the car is worth if we would have had BMW do the work (DH saved us a ton of money doing the work himself though but still, that was a ton of time and effort) So if they end up considering it totalled somehow all the time, effort, and money was a complete loss, (especially considering we have owned the car less than 2 years! It is a BMW 99 528i so value definitely would not be any more than 5000 at the most if I had to guess.
So the question is, if they end up considering it totaled what vehicles should I be looking at? Ideally, I would be interested in a 6-9 passenger vehicle (the more seats the better), good gas milage, great safety and reliability ratings, top tether anchors, and a decent price (under 10,000). Is there such a vehicle out there? lol Hopefully they don't consider it totaled but I do know how outrageous BMW labor and part prices are when you have to go straight through them so DH and I are worried that it may happen when they finish their estimate evaluation so I'm planning ahead just in case. Any suggestions are appreciated. TIA!
