Default Another one bites the dust, hope not but it is looking that way

Well, while on the way to work this morning, I took a brief detour to check out some epic surf. A woman making a left-hand turn and looking right, pulled out of an alley and right in front of me. Thankfully the ABS system worked well and I was able to swerve to the left, but alas, she just kept coming. Fortunately, nobody was seriously hurt. Her 2010 Camry has some serious front end damage. My 2000 Discovery is limping and beat up. Looks like a new bumper cover, bumper itself is bent on the right side, grill, headlight, turn signal, lower cowling, with fog light and trim, right fender, fender liner, water nozzels, some hood adjustment, but it should be good, no apparent radiator or a/c cooler damage. Without labor, parts alone are probably in the $2000 range, labor, another $1000 (airbags did not deploy, thankfully). Truck is built like a tank! Anyone have any idea what the current value of a 2000 Land Rover Discovery in very nice shape is these days? Recent head gaskets, radiator, water pump, belts, plugs, wires, radiator, battery, interior is immaculate, exterior is 9 of 10. Rebuilt front driveshaft. Truck is running great by the way! I attached a photo. Thanks Phil

You can use www.statewidelist.com top search all of craigslist in your state, put in Rover, and it will output by metro area. You can select private or dealer sales. Her insurance pays?

Do you have any pics of the toyota? I'm curious to see what a disco will do to another car.
