So - I had a run-in with a lorry who ran over the rear triangle of my Brompton (and fortunately not my leg).
Just got a quote back from the bike shop - new triangle, new rear wheel (3spd instead of the SS it was originally), shifters and labour come to £520. Which is still half the cost of a new 3spd Brompton. But it's pretty much what I paid for it second hand 5 years ago.
So - does it seem worth it? Are there any other questions I should be asking to clear that up?
