Update for anyone interested:
Just managed to get the car to a bodyshop for an estimate - the dent on the wheel arch will pull out, meaning that it's effectively just a fill and respray of the rear bumper and wing, and blown into the door. The alloy will need a refurb, and they don't know what damage has been done underneath so that's pending further investigation...
For the paintwork, wheel refurb and a geo check, the estimates came in at £950 and £1050!
I reckon once they've firkled underneath to work out what's wrong with the geometry, and possibly replaced any bent parts, that's going to be around £1500 easily.
Just waiting for approval from the claim managament company, and I'll get it booked in.
