holy *****.

sorry to hear about your lost bro. It sucks that you had to lose your car that way. The good thing is that you're okay so let's be thankful for that.

What kind of car hit you?

damn. Same thing happened with my old 300E. A Honda T-boned me and the car was totalled too. It's all good though, insurance took care of us and got me the car I'm driving now.

The good thing is that your ok to tell the story and BUY ANOTHER W124. LOL Keep the car is not that hard to get it back to running condition just get a rear quarter panel and a donor w124 may take 6 months but you'll have your car back.

lol. I don't even know if that's the culprit yet on why my seat doesn't go down. I tried to take it off a couple days ago but I couldn't figure it out and decided I should stop before I break it. lol

by the way, I fixed the b pillar panel.

Newbie, I'm really sorry to hear and see that. Did you at least have decent insurance?

BTW: The rims still look good, and there's one good taillight left.

That sucks.. thats a lot fo damage. airbag popper and everything...

But at least the car did it's job and you walked away...

My friend got hit by a honda street racer a couple of years ago in the drivers side at like 50 mph while he was doing 35 and the car got totalled, but he walked away.

The best news is you are alive.

The car can be replaced.
