I dont think there was a vehicular right of way through their garden, you should check with the local council before removing what might/might not be an illegal obstruction
Oh dear Ed thats never good! be careful out there on the road!

We could all team up and buy Ed some filler for his truck
I don't need filler, I need a new bullbar and mounts. The dents look like they'll push out mostly.

Yes. I made a deal with the houseing association that own the house. They'll leave my insurance alone if I replace the fence.

Right, here's the pictures of the damage my truck suffered.
First of all the deformed bullbar

The twisted mount for the bull bar (other looked the same but bent in the other direction)

Near side healight again

Near side front wing

And that's about it.
So:
Paintwork
NS wing indicator cover
Bullbar and mounts
Dents in grill/wing from bullbar hitting headlight grills (hopefully they'll push out)
Bumper (If I can get the bugger off)
and one of my rear hub cap things, but the metal bracket and the platic cover. (I may not bother with these)
Luckily, there's apparently a Suzuki breakers in Immingham, so I'll probably bounce over there in the easter holidays.
