Do you/other party have insurance?
Have you made your insurance claims and obtained the police reports attributing falt to the other party?
WHat has your insurance adjuster said?
Insurance pays to repair a car or if totaled to replace at a certain value.

I have insurance, the other driver has insurance.
The police report stated other driver at fault, ticket was written for, usafe

I have about 5000 to 6000 in damange to my car.
Other drivers ins.co. did offer to lease me a car, to drive, But I am sore so I haven't picked it up at this time.
My car was new, only bought in Jan. of 05.
Now it will always be wrecked in my mind.

Are your damages your fault?? If your insurance is paying, then you would have to have 'full replacement' insurance.
If you are claiming on the other drivers insurance, they only have to repair or replace, whichever is cheaper.

The ins. co. will provide for a rental during the amount of time it takes to fix your car. They will fix what was considered to be damaged. They will compensate you for the value of the car (todays value) only if the car is considered totaled (over 60% damaged) which judging from your post is not the case. As far as you being sore (physically?) you will need a lawyer for compensation.

Where did you get that crap??? Simply, it is NOT true that they WILL provide a rental car.

As a basic rule, if the other driver caused the collision and your car is not safe to operate or is undergoing repairs, you are entitled to a rental car or compensation for the loss of use of your car while it is inoperable. Whether the other driver's insurance company will assist in providing you with a rental car varies from company to company.

Some insurance companies will provide a rental car for your use until your vehicle is repaired. In that case, you generally will not have to pay any money out of your pocket. Other insurance companies will require that you rent a car on your own and the company will reimburse you at a fixed daily rate. This rate usually is fairly low, so you should shop around to get the best rental rate.
