75% of Value car is written of. 140-160k for damage. As I know they have to redo the whole dash as well.

Glad you are ok, car can be replaced.

That roadd I can c in the background looks very familiar. I am in JHB as well and hate driving around all the bloody construction. Was raining this AM and had several scares. One good thing that has come of this post for me is that I have forgotten that I dont have the Addcover on the insurance shortfall. Just got of the phone with them to have it added.

THat sucks balls dude..

I am pretty sure there that will be a write off, if you touched the chassis, its gone, but even those airbags means new dash and stuff.

Also if the car is under motorplan, they can only use dealer parts, if not they can use aftermarket stuff.

Just glad you are OK dude
