Ouch!
If you got hit, you will get paid. I'd guess around $4,500.
You can buy it back and have it dropped at a storage. Part it out in 30 days and send the carcass to the crusher.

Hopefully this all works out and JRL can save this car! If he does, the Volvo gods will have big smiles on their faces!

Well, it's sitting outside my garage now with a dead battery and a slightly pushed over hood (can't open it) so Monday when it warms up a lot we'll find a way to open it, put the jump box on it and drive it inside.
I think there will be more work needed than it's worthwhile to do but after I get that mangled bumper off, and the hood up I can determine the damage much better.
Probably will be a part out if anyone has interest in stuff but I will let everyone know in a week or so.
I have access to a complete 850 front end but still I need to see how much and how badly everything inside is bent and see if it's worth it!
The owner is a nice guy so with me being in the holiday mood I felt bad that he was paying storage, so it can let it stay here for a while

Got the hood open, she's hit too hard to make a rational reason to fix it.
I emailed the owner but I think there will be a killer interior for sale soon
