I have just had the go ahead from the insurance company to have my MH repaired, after weeks of searching i found someone who will make a brand new bumper for me, unlike all the other garages who just wanted to add a flat one on and take away my ladders, which would have spoilt the van, i have begged and pleaded and become somwhat of a pest with Saga and they have finally agreed, i could dance all night, i'm so happy
 
Great news. Hope they can get it done quickly so you can get out and about in it again.

Might even have time for a 'Sheffielders' only meet up!!

As a suggestion, whilst the repairs are being done, get a bull bar fitted to the rear of the van.

When I bought mine it came with one already fitted - a really sturdy tubular steel affair - and it will minimise the risk of this happening again.
