I certainly won't be getting any insurers involved!
Things aren't looking quite so bad now I've calmed down a bit and assessed things properly.
The Haynes is an easy fix, just needs a new fog light lense (She's lucky that was the only damage she did to it!).
I'm pretty sure her car has only suffered cosmetic damage. The bumper has some nasty deep scratches where it caught the garage wall but is still in one piece.
The wing has more scratches and a big crack in it, but is still useable.
The car's a good 8 or 9 years old now and not really worth throwing money at so she'll just have to drive it as it is.
The plan was always to run it into the ground so I'm not too worried about resale value.
The garage door's looking a little battered, but should be ok once I've finished knocking it back into shape. I guess it's a good opportunity to practice some panel beating
The frame needs securing to the wall again, and it looks like the spring/runner mechanism might be knackered on one side, which is going to be a total ballache to replace, but not the end of the world.
She's still not sure what happened, but it sounds like she stamped on the accelerator instead of the brake during a momentary lapse of concentration...
