>> Yeah, it's gonna be a write off
Gary from the local dealer/storage yard phoned and confirmed that, from the pov of a full repair back to 'as new' it's beyond economic repair. Even if there's a front 'apron' to fit it anywhere it would be a back to the factory job. That sort of thing on modern vans with 'Solid' construction is beyond the kit/skills of dealers, or at least this one.
They can however do a proper watertight repair, and conceal it cosmetically as best they can, with glass fibre/filler etc. £2k including 3 new skylights and a TV aerial - I forgot about that when looking for damage myself.
Will go for that I think.
