update rear ended 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be erikbgt on  Thu Jun 23 03:03 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Lol I don't think I've heard a girl use up the rear like that before, I always thought it was a guy thing. What I would recommend since I was rear-ended a few years ago by a drunk driver, is to of course if you haven't taken tons of pictures and keep a journal of any pain / suffering. As far as being banged up volvo, hey just shows the craftmanship on the car, volvo beats all :-) But as far as bumper change and stuff it shouldn't be that bad, I'm not sure if your year has the nicer trim, but I would go ahead and redye it while its off give it a nicer look.

As far as the sueing goes, the drunk idiot who hit me was his 3rd DUI, and I got pretty bad whiplash so it really depends on the situation, he was completely liable, and I don't know why any insurance company would insure him. But hey honestly getting better is the important thing and keep the logs and stuff and you should be fine.

Good luck!

Erik
