Would you pay between 5 and 10,000 to fix a 2008 Volvo in good running conditon?

Asked by janbb (62874points) November 21st, 2022

I was in a car accident yesterday and the estimate for the damage is as above. The car has been running fine generally and has low mileage – about 100,000. The body shop is estimating that and I will be paying out of pocket but any new car I’ve looked at is about $40,000. I’m inclined to get it fixed but would like opinions. I will need a new car but am hoping to hold off a bit.

Note: This is in General and I don’t want advice on which car to buy. Please stick to the question as asked.
