Mellow --

Ouch, what happened there? Is that a 320? You don't see too many of them around here.

Hope everyone was okay.

Ouch, glad your dad came out ok. Insurance will claim a car totalled if the amount to fix it is about 75% of its value or something like that... Hmm.. your dad works for some gov't looks like otherwise his car wouldn't say that on the plate now would it

They dont?? I thought they do .. Anyway's Everywhere else they have the S280 (discontinued after W140 I think), S320 , S430, S500 and S600 (There are other D engines also) The ones I listed are the benzin ones only. So they dont sell the new S350 (the one that replaced S320) in the states either? Maybe so just like the E-class the start is E320 they want to make the entry for the s class S430 as well..

S 320s are not sold in the us, as for the insurance well the car was sent to the dealership after it was rammed by the truck, @ the time it was ensured for about 14 000 kuwaiti dinars which was really undervalued (exchange rate is about 3.3 dollars to the dinar) at the time, a screw up by the guys at the office. The picture dosent do the level of damage justice in the sense that it dosent show two important features, that bieng the presense of two dents one on the c pillar the other on the roof adjacent to the b pillar which probabyl means it wasnt a superficial remove and bolt on new fenders type of accident, i think those two dents would signify chasis involvement and hence why the dealership came back with a whooping 11 000KD (about 36 000$) bill, obviously the insurance guys decided to bail out
The plate says 'diplomatic mission' in arabic muhri, thats why its yello this is what a standard kuwaiti plate and our replacement looks like

Yep, I see that it says Diplomatic mission - and I know what a Kuwaiti license would like thats why I thought its a govt plate (the yellow one that is)
