Probably wouldn't be as scary as it looks with a kango. A friend chomped through a load for me quite quickly.

The major hassle is getting it through the house and the disposal which is inevitably based on weight.

I am afraid I don't have any recommendations - when I was breaking up the concrete covering most of our front garden, I just bashed away at it bit by bit with a 4 pound club hammer. However, for what you need, I would imagine a couple of blokes with a pneumatic drill could get it broken up and hauled away in a day or two. You'd then (judging by the photo) have a nice bit of space to create a proper garden. Good luck with getting it all cleared away.
