Cool Got rear ended....

Last thursday I got rear ended NOT in the SVX thank goodness!!

So my 1996 Mitsubishi Mirage (1600cc twin cam - 2 door) is looking a wee bit shorter.

Insurance is trying to write it off - I would rather they fix the beast. They are quoting NZ$3700 to fix - no rail damage.

IT has 205,000kms on the clock & I have had it for 15 years - do not want someone elses problems.

If it is written off I am thinking about a 1996 Toyota Sera as a replacement (another window in window) to sit in the garage beside the SVX.

Any thoughts on this model, there are a few for sale here in NZ - but I am looking at getting one from Japan.

The BMW that hit me was driven by a 22 year old - looking at her friend go by me in a very noisy "boy racer" type car!!!

Re: Got rear ended....

Why are all the pictures sideways?
It doesn't look like much damage. How can they call that totalled?

Oh thank god it wasn't the SVX. Everyone was ok, I hope?

Wow, I never heard of a Toyota Sera before. That is a very SVXish looking car. Neat, I wonder if they can be found stateside. Be sure to post plenty of pics and info about it if you decide to get one.

Re: Got rear ended....

Pictures are sideways - taken with cellphone, PC that I used (not my own) does not seem to have any picture rotation options.

Will rotate once I get back to Auckland.

Thank God you're safe and it is not the SVX.

On the other hand, I would let those legs hit me anytime!

Oddly, I thought the same thing too. I must be having an "off" day.
