Good luck finding parts and getting it fixed. As crazy as it sounds, with that damage front and rear (both bumpers, bonnet, wing and headlamp) I wouldn't be surprised if an insurance company write it off. Hawkeye headlamps are expensive, plus factor in bodyshop /paint and a courtesy car into the claim and it'll push it over the threshold I reckon. Of course its repairable and you could buy it back and put on the road, but then it would be flagged as CatD (or CatN now?) i expect.
Hopefully you can do a deal with a breaker for all the parts

Parts for a wagon are few and far between, the breaker Baron showed me has everything I need. He's driving a hard bargain but it looks like complete front bumper, rear bumper, both wings, both headlights at £850, he's not willing to split thew wings or headlights... £65 pallet delivery puts me at a remortgage on my house! This is all before labor at fitting the parts and tidying up the rest... Ouchie!
Looks like overtime is in order this year!
