Car shopping!

Hello!

So yesterday I was in a car accident. And my $17500 car is a bit destroyed! More than a bit my mechanic says it will cost around $70000 to repair it! So as you can understand I would rather buy a new car than repair the old one. My old car was a 2011 Mercedes Benz S class. And I LOOOOOOVE the design on Mercede´s cars. So I would really like a new mercedes. And I'm thinking about the latest Mercedes Benz C class. It has room for all of my family, it looks awesome!, and it's not too expensive. So I don't know if I should buy it or not... Can you help me?

Insurance? Also there is no way it will take $70000 to repair a mercedes. In sweden's official mercedes center maybe.

I'd personally go for something like http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2015-dodge-charger-r-t-scat-pack-first-drive-review

but yeah, I'd go for a C-class, and I see that you live in Sweden qq

Yes of course I have insurance but you see I will get like $50000 from it wich more than enough to the C class that I want and cheaper than repairing the old one.

So what will do you do? Throw the car away and get nothing for it?

 

Oh you are getting 50000 from insurance ok.

How the fuck do you get 50000 from insurance for 17500 car

Cars are an emotive purchase, buy the one you like not what people recommend

Go and test one out, see what its like to drive, and how it makes you feel - read up on its reliability and factors as thats really the only objective part
