Mark,

Sorry to hear about your accident. It's never a good day when we lose another endangered species.

Your VX appears to be well maintained - it would be a shame to let it get chopped up by a scrap yard.

Buying it and repairing it yourself is an option, but if someone had the money to purchase it for salvage, they could probably easily make their money back and then some by parting it out here. The idea has been considered a few times in the past, but I don't know if anyone has actually done it. The more years that go by, the harder it will be to find original parts. If you buy back your totalled VX and then find a Proton, you'll get first dibs at all the parts you'd ever want!

I personally am looking for a complete grey interior (front and rear seats, steering wheel, door panels, and knobs from the spare tire cover). Let me know if you consider parting her out yourself!
