How bad is that!!! At least no one was injured but how dissapointing for the volunteers who have spent so much time in the refurbishmnet of this fine box! It is devastating but happy to hear that the damage can be repaired!
Thanks for letting us know Philip
All the best
Phil

Hope the damage is not to extensive and that the NNR can claim on the car owner's insurance.

Best wishes,

Blame the French, it looks like that red Citroen caught fire. Another good reason not to but a French car!
