Re: Reapply for PR or citizenship: crossover dates are close.
What proof would I need? I filled the forms in and sent them. I don't have anything else. I have the original landing papers (can't remember what the code is for it sorry) for each of us and the PR card that would have expired 10 days prior to driving back to Canada.

Thanks. My wife is still stressing over it. We've decided to drive over and catch a flight from Buffalo so make it easier for us rather than fly direct from Toronto.

Just take your UK passport and COPR form. Pay the $6 for the I94 waiver and on the way back to Canada UK passport and COPR. You simply tell them you are waiting for your PR card.

At least two people I know who have been waiting for their first PR cards have done this (entered by land) and were fine. A third didn't want to risk it (all three were around the time when the first cards really were taking "forever").

The law (IRPA A19(2)) states:
Right of entry of permanent residents
(2) An officer shall allow a permanent resident to enter Canada if satisfied following an examination on their entry that they have that status.

Canadian citizens and permanent residents have the right to enter Canada, even if the permanent resident is later removed.

So I guess the issue with flying is just with the airlines then as their staff only know of the PR card and will insist to see that or the PRTD?

Yes.
I find it helpful to think of a PR card as functioning rather like an additional passport.
