Sandwiched :(
Hey all! So last Friday, I was hit at a stop light and sandwiched between two cars. Surprisingly my car didn’t take at much damage as I thought it might, nonetheless less, it took the most damage from this accident between the 3 cars. From what I can visually see, I need a new rear bumper, and new front bumper, a new hatch. That’s not including what happened on the inside. So I kbb’d the price of my car and I’m worried the cost would outway or equal the price of my car. It’s a 2012 Mini Countryman, base model. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks guys!

Doesn't matter who's insurance company he goes with, if they total the car out, it's a wash. My wife's car was just totaled by an idiot making a left into on-coming traffic, Book value was $14.5K , $11k to fix, I wanted to get it fixed so that I wouldn't have to put out the extra cash to get a new car. Both insurance companies totaled the car. StateFarm/AllState,

If you can show that you were rear-ended and pushed into the car ahead, then the last car in line gets handed the costs of repair for all 3 vehicles but as 'gumbedamit' opines, if its determined to be a constructive total then they will not fix it.

Depends if "Elliotts" rear-ended the car ahead first and then was rear-ended by the car behind. If so, the car at the rear pays for his own front end and Elliotts rear-end damage and then Elliotts pays for his front end damage as well as the car at the front of the line. Things are a bit different if you are in a 'no-fault' state or province.
