It was a 2010 XF Premium with 29680 miles.
It was a good thing I just had the 30,000 mile service done.

Thank God your wife had an angel passenger.

I pray she recovers quickly.

And I hope the adjuster totals the car. Best of luck to you sir.

While it sucks you had the 30K service done and most likely lost a nice low mileage car, at least your sweetie is OK. You can find another car easy enough.

Shocking picture and I'm sure you were shocked as only a husband can be
when he gets that awful news.

I'm so glad your wife is ok! Every day is a gift...

Mention this when negotiating the total loss settlement. Also, start looking for a replacement vehicle now. Assuming the tow truck insurance company accepts liability, they will owe (and pay) for a rental, but only until they make you an offer on the T/L. They might give you a few days beyond that, but not many.

The good part about selling to an insurance company is you should get the full retail value, plus tt&l.....iow, more than you would have gotten selling it private party, assuming it wasn't a wreck.

Also, to reiterate what others have mentioned, glad your wife wasn't hurt.

This is where it pays to have a dashcam.

Yeah, I'm with the consensus on the damages. I have seen insurance agencies total vehicles with a lot less damage than that.

So, unsurprisingly, the adjuster totaled it.
He stopped counting at $21,000 when had not even got to the engine yet.
