I have my reasons, if you want to know email me. My estimation of this web site has fallen even more and I will seriously consider any further posts from this username or any other. (which might please some but would just about sum up this site)

Get on with patting each other on the backs and kissing each others Ar$es!

Oops...

a terrible thing to happen to any firm, condolences to those that have lost their P&J's and hope those with cars still unaccounted for get an (hopefully positive) answer soon

I'm meant to be collecting my car tomorrow!

Can anyone confirm the damaged vehicles? Can anyone provide a mobile number for Dom?

Cheers,
Donald.

Check page 2 there's a pic of a grey tuscan all covered in ash. Is it yours? Doesn't look too bad.

Sorry to see this news story.

I had a big house fire at the end of 2006. My restored MK1 Golf GTI was gutted (internal garage).

My household policy paid out for the house and contects, but not for the car. I lost my NCD...

I hope everyone gets sorted asap.

Thast because hes been banned rolleyes

Karma_uthink..... Can your estimations of this site have gone downhill!!! No naming and Shaming has always been part of PH from the very early days so in that fact Nothing has Changed what so ever!!!
Quite cowardly posting under a new username and form where you are posting from I would have thought you may have known better.... If you are how i think you are my estimations of you have gone down hill rapidly too wavey

Just spoke to Dom - he's devastated that he's not been able to reach all the customers that are affected by today's sad events.

As has been stated before, systems and files are down which has made it difficult for him to contact people.

Dom's managed to get hold of most people, there's just two outstanding:

John Snowdon
David Aldfried


If either of you are on here and see this, please PM me with a contact number and I'll pass this onto Dom.

If anyone else out there has a car at Power and hasn't been contacted by Dom - again, PM me a name and contact number.

Dom hasn't been able to get on here yet so hasn't seen the kind words and offers of help. He was genuinely touched and might well take us up on helping get things tidied up - he'll let us know as soon as he knows more.

Sorry to all of the victims of this i feel terrible that this has happened. Worst day since the factory shut down.

Its not just the cars but no doubt this will setback all of the ongoing development work that will be of benefit to all owners.

Really do hope that they can be back on their feet asap and that those who have lost cars will get a fair payout although that will be of small comfort to them.
