First post! Just bought this car YESTERDAY and took it to a mechanic just to get it checked out. The mechanic pulls it out of the shop and and BOOM a collision happens in front of the shop and a car smashes into a light pole which falls on top of my car with the mechanic still inside. I'm so sad. Also wondering how the insurance company will handle this. there is a pretty large dent in the frame around the door/windshield area. the hood is scratched up, dented and scraped. the side mirror is broken and a small crack in the windshield. a few dings and scrapes in the passenger door. I loved this car and only owned her less than 24 hours before this happened. I even named her Starla
feeling sad...

Don't involve your insurance company - if you do, it will go against YOUR record (regardless of eventual payment by his insurance)! It's the mechanics problem - he needs to cover it from HIS insurance.
