A: No, you are entitled to the fair market value of your vehicle, and "loss of use" which is generally measure by the daily rental value for a reasonable number of days after the collision.
A:
you won't be able to sue and deal with an insurance co.......you will have to file in small claims as no lawyer will take this on a contingency....but good luck collecting........unless the driver is wealthy.
another issue is if you did not have liability coverage you can not collect for pain and suffering.
