Hard saying goodbye to an old friend.<br>I was wondering, along with what area you live in, what value the insurance company estimated as the total loss. My insurance is actually pretty cheap here in STL but I do wonder about why I carry collision on it. <br><br>Larry Martin<br>'92 SE-R<br><br><font face="verdana"><br></font><br><br>--- On <b>Tue, 3/17/09, Ron A <i><atteber1@bellsouth.net></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;">From: Ron A <atteber1@bellsouth.net><br>Subject: Another One Bites The Dust<br>To: se-r@se-r-list.org<br>Date: Tuesday, March 17, 2009, 8:47 AM<br><br><pre>Before Christmas, my 92 Classic got t-boned while I was making a left <br>turn on a left turn arrow. The lady came out of nowhere.
Kind of made <br>the car a "U", in a mild way. It was toast. It was a quiet hit. No<br>glass <br>or plastic broke. Just nailed the passenger door. So ends an era for a <br>car I bought in 1999 with 97k miles. It ended up with 302k miles and was <br>going strong. I ended up selling the car "as is" on Craigslist. The <br>person who bought it is going to convert a Sentra to an SE-R. I'd like <br>to see how that comes out, but when I called to give him the salvage <br>title, he wouldn't call me back. Go figure.<br><br>When the insurance company was trying to figure the value, they plugged <br>in the mileage. Just for fun, I had them plug in 200k miles. The value <br>stayed the same. I guess when you hit 200k or maybe less than that, hit <br>don't matter how many miles you put on her.<br><br>I miss the car. It was fun and reliable. I did more with that car than <br>any other I've owned. I felt like I could do most repairs. I'll stay on<br><br>the list, but
I've enjoyed being here and the people I've met.<br><br>Ironically, I was reading about a base Nissan Versa in Consumer Reports. <br>They were noting how the base Versa had roll up windows, manual door <br>locks and manually adjustable seats. Hmmm, sounds like my SE-R. It's <br>amazing how expectations change.<br><br>Ron Atteberry<br>92 SE-R, probably in pieces somewhere<br><br>+----------------------------------------------------------------------+<br>The mailing list home page is http://www.se-r-list.org/<br>To modify your subscription, go to<br>http://www.se-r-list.org/mailman/listinfo/se-r<br></pre></blockquote></td></tr></table>
