damn...family is family but you borrow somones car you think you would take better care if it than your own car...that is so wrong on so many levels, no respect at all....and on top of that how many other cars did she damage if those are from hitting other cars? I'd say off the top of my head you looking at around $1200.00...from the pics looks like the rear fender and the door need to be re-painted, and then there is the body work, labor......hopefully you or your aunt knows someone in the body shop business ...not worth your insurance going up so I'd pay outta pocket

Never let ANYONE borrow your tC. Not even family. In fact, ESPECIALLY not family. I would make my mother walk 10 miles in the rain rather than let her use my tC.

well, not to be rude, but she shouldn't be driving your car if she can't afford to pay for her mistakes.... that's what insurance is for.

let me get this straight... your aunts car is in the shop because she wrecked her own car? then she borrows your car and wrecks that too, and not only that, it looks like she dinged a crap load of doors on the way..

I dont think she should be driving a vehicle.

To be honest, you seem like a chump for letting her bend you over. I don't care who it is, that's huge disrespect to borrow something from someone and return it in that condition and say "I dunno what happened". If it were a guy, even my best friend or brother I'd knock his teeth out, if it were a girl, even a gf or sister I'd make them pay and if they didn't you can bet I'm getting my money from their insurance or suing them. If that doesn't work their car is getting trashed 3 or 4 times worse than mine was. Don't go through life acting like a chump bro, or people are gonna treat you like one. Classic case of Milton from office space.
