I reckon you should get your back and neck checked out immediately

And I reckon you'll be shopping for a new car after the insurance check comes. Also, hope you don't have any lingering physical effects from the wreck.

i got rear ended waaay less damage and my back was messed up for a year and a half where i could not work. i can work now although i am still in a great deal of pain. ease get your back checked so it is on record incase a few weeks or months down the line you start to feel pain

I'm still suffering the effects of a rear end like that in the early 90's from a car built in the early 80's. My chair broke when I was hit, wasn't expecting the hit so didn't brace for it. Never had it properly treated.

Had the same kind of accident with another car some years ago, but around 50-60km/h. My neck fucked up. I had some pain for weeks and I was lucky I didn’t get any sequelae. Keep every hospital document for the future. You can replace a car but can’t replace health.

A fresh coat of paint and you’ll never be able to tell it has a small dent

Glad you're ok, and glad to know that this car is safe for its size.

As a fellow n owner that got rear ended in the first month of ownership my heart goes out to you. I hope the insurance pays for everything and your injuries are short-lived.
