Car Accident Need Help- 2003 S430

W220
2003 S Class 430 4MATIC





It rained yesterday and the car started sliding. I removed my foot from the gas but still had no traction. The car did half a donut and we and hit a guard rail. Thankfully no one was hurt and here was no damage to the rail, but my car was hit pretty bad. Im trying to look for parts online in order to start fixing it asap but Im not sure what I would need to buy (or where the best place to buy them would be).

I drove the car back home and it seems to drive fine. I don't think the wheel is hit. The trunk, however, would not open. I posted photos of the car and any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

That car is totaled and not economically repairable . Would require cutting out the entire rear quarter

I agree with Tusabes. The cost to repair the car would exceed it's value unless you have a friend or relative that owns a body shop. When you say the car started sliding, that seems kind of odd for just rain. What is the condition of the tires.

What did your insurance company say?
