My Wrecked E320 has awaken my 300SD

I am very sad this happned to my beloved E320, i have only owned this car for 1 1/4 Month

So this how it happned, I was driving, came up to a stop light, the light just turned green, i was about to go (i was at stand still) and BAM i was hit. That guy did not hit his brakes when he hit me (not tire screeching nothing), I think was going 25-30 MPH, I was disoreinted for a few seconds and i shook it off, So we pulled over and exchange our insurence info, He felt bad that he totaled such a nice car, He was a really a nice guy, the Suv that hit me was a 2007 GMC Yukon XL, he got off with just a scuff mark and quarter size dent on his driverside bumper. An adjuster is comming tomorrow to check it out hopefully its repairable, the tail light and vaccume locks are the only thing that is not functioning the locks use to work flawlessy now 1 out of 4 doors lock... Here the damage on my E320... Now it sits covered beside my 300SD IN PAIN

As for me i just have a sore neck, going to get it checked out tomorrow...

We will be taking both car and cash, and i ll be using my 300SD tomorrow

Oh sorry to hear about that, because of the damage, most insurance co's will total it. had same damage to a E320 cabriolet recently with 62K on it... they totalled it.

Another poor car victim to a stupid SUV. If he had been in a car, the damage would have been far less.

Sorry to see that happen, hopefully it can be repaired!

He's going to look at it for 10 seconds and total it. What is going to be the iffy part is how much they will pay out.
