Thanks everyone for ya thoughts. A bit after I posted that I finally managed to get some sleep. Hence probably why the trouble I'd with trying to spell statutory, not even the Firefox spellchecker could help.
No, I haven't been saying any of the infamous phrases that will summon Murphy, specifically any favored by the Top Gear presenters. I am however thinking it should be an easy repair, for to me it just needs a new rear & front bumper, one headlight lense, new radiators, realignment and straightening of the front quarter panels (drivers side especially needs it for some reason), radiator support and bonnet and of cause a new paint job. We're still yet to hear from the bodyshop so all of that could be moot for us.
I took photo's of the damage in case anyone's wondering. I'm more surprised it's still some what drivable, but hey it's a Toyota just probably shouldn't do it for too long with the radiator damaged like that.
WG, we don't have or get any of those down here. So here's it's antipodean cousin, the Walkinshaw Performance SS-V wagon!
