Did hedge jump out? Sounds like it
Yeah takes balls to get off the brakes, had to do it a lot with our old lorries with little weight on and knackered load sensors, great fun!

It does take balls to lift off the brakes, but what is usually amusing is the fact you've got a load of lock on from fruitlessly turning the wheel whilst skidding, you let off the brakes and suddenly vere off.

I am repaing a Ka with nearly the same damage at the moment, you are going to need, bottom arm, leg, anti roll bar drop link, possibly wheel, wing, wheel arch liner, bumper corner and possibly centre, headlight, part of the front panel and it looks like its taken the edge of the bonnet.
Thats a fair amount of time, money and effort if you are repairing it yourself, if your not, thats a write off.
