Sorry to hear your tale of woe.

If your 190E was prized that it implies you looked after it and spent $$ on it. Be on your guard with your insurance company as they will now try and rear end you too!

Start preparing your case now, with collecting you paper and photographic evidence of the 190's near perfect ( nay, enhanced)condition prior to the accident. Argue like hell for top dollar!

Then take the money and run.
