Car electrical fire

[crudsrus]

Sorry to report the loss of my 230E (W124) to an electrical fire. I was returning to work from lunch when apparently the electrical system arched or caused some type of electrical system fire. My beloved Benz is now in the hands of the repair shop to determine the cause and cost of the electrial fire. The damage was contained to the right battery box, relay area. It looks as if the engine suffered very little damage. I will have some pictures of the damage to post soon. The hood ,windshield, and right quarter-panel suffered the major heat damage. The fire department destroyed my front hood attempting to open the hood for access but I'm grateful It didn't happen while I was driving. Anyone with information or data on the value of my car would be greatly appreaciated.

1985 230E(W124) 152,000 miles 2.3 L 102 engine

Thanks in advance
