Here is the outcome:
I expected the car to start after this, but there had been some damage to a battery cable. I'm still waiting for that and the exhaust. |
That is terrible! Do you know the full extent of the damage yet? I ask because I have told about a brand new X5 that was declared a total loss after being rear-ended. The visual damage wasn't that bad, aside from the usual and a buckled rear quarter panel, but the exhaust got driven in so hard that it cracked the engine block! The insurance company wrote it off. Incidentally, this X5 belonged to the parts manager of the largest BMW dealer in the US.
