Sorry to see/hear this! I reversed mine into a metal door that was left open on a skip a few months ago so I kinda know how it feels. Hope it all works out cheaper than expected for you

Damn Dave, it's so easily done though. I've reversed into one of those stupid green ones at Asda once but luckily it was bendy and didn't damage my car. I also did it again to a steel bollard that ran around the carpark but was below my mirror view and I just touched it, thats left a nice scratch on the side of my rear bumper but luckily nothing else. It happens to everyone, don't beat yourself up over it.

If you go through the insurance then i'd take a bammer to the back window as they replace the window you currently have in a new tailgate so i'd get the new glass also.

Let us know how you get on and I hope it's all resolved before TRAX, if not then just bring what ever you want along, maybe even your bike

- shameful of a mod to suggest such action on a public forum

Still - insurance companies are thieving scum

Steve, when my sister did the same they used the same glass... I was really shocked at this tbh!!! I'm not suggesting a hammer be took to the back window... don't be silly... that would be unlawful!!!

If you read it carefully it says "bammer"

Sorry to hear that that's happenned Dave. I think most people have done something similar at times, most the time you get away with it, but it's one of those things that once in a blue moon you'll get major damage. Hopefully you will manage to get it fixed and looking nice again in no time.

Not too bad really... if your paying yourself then you'll be wanting to recoup as much parts as possible.
