First accident

Hey everybody!

Just wanted to ask for some advice... I got hit by a car! today I was going straight through a green light and a guy turned right into me. I was going about 25 kph and he was probably going about the same speed. I'm pretty bruised and battered but I'll live.

My bike is most likely done though. I only saw it briefly before getting into the ambulance. It looked like the fork and front wheel where pretty messed up, I don't know about the frame though. My question is does anybody know what my bike is even worth? It is my winter beater, (people give me grief for using a Bianchi for a winter bike, but my only other bike is my Cervelo Soloist and I'm not riding that in the snow!) I haven't been able to find out anything about the bike, it was a hand me down and I don't even know when it was bought.

Does anybody know what my bike is worth? Is it worth trying to salvage it or should I just take what the insurance company gives me? Any help here would be nice, thanks!
