I took my 1950 MG TD out to a Michigan MG T-Series club meeting last night. I have a few small repairs and some maintenance to do before I can drive it much, but it’s good to have it back on the road. Such a pretty car.

Reflections of cars of yore. A late 1940s MG TC spotted in the hubcap of my 1950 MG TD.

Hypothetically, if someone got T-boned and the air bags went off, smoke in the car, etc. car needed to get towed. Would it likely be totaled?
I'm (hypothetically) trying to determine if I need to be looking for a replacement car or trying to rent a car while the insurance process runs it's course. It's unclear if insurance would cover a rental loaner based on the policy document.
Edit: Thank you everyone! I appreciate all of your helpful responses and accounts of experiences with numbers and timelines. It's very helpful to have a better idea of what to expect.
Also everyone involved in this hypothetical is okay!
One conclusion is that this vehicle is extremely likely to be totaled so I should be directing my energy towards finding a replacement (hypothetically)
I know young lads who drive #HotHatches often get a bad reputation (and middle aged men more so!) and #CarCulture has a lot of problems - but to their credit, #Facebook groups for #VW #GolfGTI enthusiasts (especially #UK ones) are one of the very the few places where you don't get a fuckton of casual #racism and #Reform supporters everywhere (they are even more wholesome than the forums) - although I am slightly cynical and do wonder if its because there are so many #BritishAsian / #Desi lads on there no one wants to piss them off, as they are a source of good advice and used #cars and #parts
The worst you see is well meaning USA folk replying with valid advice but in strange units (like quarts of oil, ft/lbs for torque when everything on a #Euro car is in #metric since 1970s!)

Toyota powered. The owner said it was brand new and didn't know much about it. So Bolwell came up with this design almost 20 years ago and are still hand making cars. Mind boggling, considering how difficult it is to meet ADRs here too.
And then this appeared. This is a new Bolwell! The co started back up in the mid noughties.

I've never seen one other than reading about it. My eyes just about popped out of my head.
It's a hot day, but I was planning and I will get my calipers painted today. 🧵
Step 1: Get the wheel off.
I've been lucky enough to have three sports cars in my life, with the Miata being my favorite. The best part is, no one can call it a midlife crisis when one is a senior citizen! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. #midlifecrisis #sportscar #miata #fiero #triumph #mimosayellow #cars
The sentencing of Cassius Turvey’s killers shows courts still struggle to deal with racism
"The brutal homicide of 15-year-old Noongar Yamatji boy, Cassius Turvey, by a group of white men revealed the racial schisms in Western Australian society. Turvey was walking home from school in October 2022 when he was abruptly beaten to death."

Just extraordinary to be able to see something so rare and unusual. Not that there's many of the other models left around. All fibreglass, they are an interesting part of Australian motoring history that many not know exists.
Soo those Bowells! Ok so Bolwell was a kit car made here in Melbourne

And this bulbous one is one that almost never existed.

A flock of Mokes arrived, I was busily sending photos to my friend with a Moke saying WHERE THE HELL ARE YA
And then a flock of Bolwells appeared! More on these further down thread as there's an interesting story I need to share.

We saw that pink Caddy at the Good Friday cars & coffee across town.
That blue on the Falcon was utterly glorious in the sunshine.
