HELP - They REALLY want to total my UrQ

[ANDREW FINNEY <afinney@bigplanet.com>]

I have asked for help in the past and received quite a few suggestions.
Here's the deal. In January some moron hit my parked car, doing $6000
worth of damage to it. The insurance company, Integon (owned by GM, so
it figures) has been incredibly slow to respond. I have done all the
calling. I sent them 15 pages of ads for similar UrQs in the range of
$7000-$22,000. The stupid woman, first thing she says is, "but these
cars don't have high mileage." Most of the ads didn't even have the
mileage listed. Even the kelly Blue Book (which they reject as false)
lists the value of an UrQ w/ high miles as $7000. I have repaired and
replaced almost everything in the car, except the motor, which still
pulls strong w/ good compression. I have two sets of wheels and tires,
it's chipped and has Euros and all the necessary UrQ wiring mods. AC
works.

She still wants to give me ONLY $3000 for the car. I told her to call
Ned, she refused. Anyone have any more thoughts. I really want to avoid
court
but it's going that way. I'm in CO and the accident was in NY. Do I have

to go to NY to sue? Can I nail them for lost productivity, etc (we all
know how we worry about our babies)?. I have photos showing the car was
pushed 10 feet while in gear. Do I nail them for a new tranny? I really
need help here before I
threaten them with a lawsuit. Then I know there's no going back. Thanks.
