Probably best biting the bullet and just get the parts you need repaired back to good again because regardless whether you keep the car, sell it or break it, it will be worth more fixed up.

and yeah, the plan is to fix it, I don't have time to break it so regardless of whether I keep it or not it makes financial sense to repair it.

I'm home again at the end of the month and the plan is to get it up on stands and properly assess the damage, just to 100% confirm it hasn't bent any suspension mounting points etc, I'm 99.99% positive it hasn't, although if it has

assuming that's fine, I need to get hold of some random spare wheels/space savers to roll it around on while I sort the other wheels out, order a tyre, confirm yes/no on the blown damper and order a new one

the annoying thing is that the money it's going to cost to repair could have bought a set of forged pistons and rods!!!!
