Default Sad car

I managed to crash on the way to work today. The cars in front of me stopped quick and I smashed into the volvo stationwagon infront of me. When my brakes locked up I knew what was going to happen but couldn't do anything about it. Poor car even looks sad. It will be fixed. I can't wait to get it back, so I can return this crappy yaris rental. It might be small but it's no mini.












It actually brings a tear to my eye when I look at these pictures. (what a wuss)

It's always a shame to see classics get damaged and banged up. Nice to know your MINI will be fixed.

Update:
The insurance will fix it, cost 33000 norwegian kroner (ca $5000) Everything is expensive here. It comes to about 18000 Kr (ca. 2800-3000) in parts and the rest is paint and labor. They had to special order some of the parts though. A new hood is not a stocked item. not really a big surprise there though. It will take some time before I get it back. probably another 4 weeks or so. They can't do too much before they need the hood to line things up.
