Scrap, Sell or Repair?

[Ray3579]

Rear-ended someone but otherwise the vehicle was in good condition.

The mileage is ~250,000, would you repair it to drive yourself?

How much would the repair be?

How much could I sell it for in the condition its in?

If you think I should scrap it, for how much?


Any information would be helpful! I can mail you parts if you want.

Thanks!

Would be nice if you can include some pics of the entire damage. It's kind of hard to get the full picture with close-ups only, also how does the underside look as well.

Also the year will also determine if it should be repaired or scrapped.

Not much info here to go on, but with 250,000 miles I'd say this car's probably older and nearing it's useful life anyway. My choice would be scrap it and expect maybe $250 or so. Scrapyards near me pay around $125 per ton, and you may get a little something for the convertor. Hopefully, someone more knowledgeable will give you their thoughts.

With 250k, scrap it. It's at the end of its usefullness.

After seeing latest pic, most definately scrap it. Even if it had 50k miles on it.
