Sorry to hear about what happened to your X ...

Glad you're ok, though, that's the most important part!

good luck with everything

I feel your pain that has to suck.

As for the battery comment. If you take a close look at the AUDI you can see the hazards are on flash so one can assume the battery works fine.

By the looks of the fluid I would guess the radiator has been smashed

The main thing is everyone walked away unharmed. Cars can be fixed

Goodluck with the repair

Not necessarily. In all BMWs, if you have a severe accident, the battery terminal is disconnected to prevent an electrical fire. However, the hazard lights, interior lights all come on and the power windows continue to work.

I feel your pain!!

I had a 2005 for 6 months and got rear-ended on the highway. The damage was from another SUV so damage was extensive to the rear hatch as well as bumper, muffler shifted 2" and had to be replaced. My damage was estimated at 4K but ended up around 6.8K. They charged the extra 2800 when they said they couldn't guarantee a paint match of the highland green, so they painted the rear quarter panels as well!

Since you got rear-ended by a smaller, lower vehicle it looks like you have minimal damage. Once they remove the bumper cover they will be able to tell how well the reinforced steel beam held up.
