Awesome News

Hey guys I've got some awesome news! I let this kid drive my old P.O.S. around the block AND HE RAN IT INTO A VOLVO! Isn't that awesome? Now I can put all my bad times behind me and start all over with something new... I'm thinking along the lines of a 240SX but running it with the SR20DET motor and going for the Silvia rendition.

It's not gonna be awesome news if the insurance comes back on you or the driver of the Volvo sues you. If your insurance policy only covers you, then you will may be in a world of penalties for letting someone else drive your car only to end up wrecking it. I personally would feel pretty crappy if someone took my car out and caused an accident in it.

yes but 4 things:

1.) I'm covered for all drivers
2.) I hated that damn thing more than anything in this world...
3.) The Volvo was fine.. not a scratch on it
4.) I talked to the people and my insurance company... everything's OK... well I'll pay a lil more of course but hey... at least that damn thing's gone

I'm confused - how can your car get totalled in an accident with another car and that other car not get a scratch on it.

Well, when I rear ended a minivan with my Toyota, and punctured the radiator - if I didn't like the car so much, I could have just told them to total it. (But I like it too much - the car was 20 years old, and not worth much, so if I wanted to, I could've had it totalled)

I know of a Volvo that apparently ran into a concrete bridge abutment and DID get a scratch or two.

concrete bridges (SOLID) > Volvo (abnormal vehicle) > Normal Brick Wall (not so solid)

That's why I figured it had to be a bridge abutment - in one of the smaller pics you can see whatever he hit was about 2' wide and VERY solid - I mean, look, the airbag's on the floor and the engine's in the seat.
