I sold my 2001 Subaru Forester with 162K recently to a guy in Newton Mass who owns a Gas Station/garage. I was really pleased to hear he planned to fix it. I have spoken to him the other day and he said the repairs were almost completed. I want to go check it out, if I do I will post some pictures of it here. It had been obviously in an accident. A woman driving a 2011 Toyota Camry going at least 35-40MPH.
She hit me hard enough to push me 20 ft and spun me around 180 degrees so I ended up facing the opposite direction than I was going. Have to say my Forester took the hit well. Still waiting to see who will be found at fault.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the the the amount of responses I got and was easily able to sell it within 5 days on Craig's List.
Started to wonder if I sold it too cheap but it was a lot better than the $200 the sleazy owner of garage/body shop who was so kind to offer me and he'll "junk" it for me. He told me it a "totaled" and no insurance company
would pay to cover this type of repair even if it was 6 yrs newer??
Only conclusion I can make is:
1) He doesn't know what he is talking about even though 2nd generation in the family business over 35 yrs or
2) He was trying to legally "steal" the car from me. Anyway no matter I would have rather parked it in my driveway so I could still sit in it and listen to my tunes than to sell it for $200 bucks.
It still drove, not very well but it could still move itself!

My 2001 Subaru Forester (AWD
) was recently hit on the passenger side rear door by a woman driving a Toyota last Friday Feb 22, 2013 right here on Plain St Lowell MA. As I was attempting to enter the parking lot, apparently she did not see or was unable to stop in time so Whamo!
I don't carry collision because of its age and mileage (162222) so unless the other party's insurance
decides in my favor I may be S**t of of luck!
Take advantage of my misfortune, if you have a car like this you and need parts send me an email and we can talk.
The engine and transmission
, alternator,starter all working, battery is less than 2 years old, tires
are in great condition, the seats are fair and original stock AM/FM CD, Cassette is working, lots of body parts.
I am hoping to sell it as is for $1100 or eventually will start selling off the parts.
Also if anyone thinks they can fix this car you are welcome to come take a look and give me a price to make it drivable.
Here are some pics
