Terrible news Dom, but having met you and some of your colleagues, I'm sure there is a big team effort going on to get yourselves back on track.

Best of luck and if you need an extra pair of hands (overhauls or admin.) then let me know, and I'd be only too happy to oblige.

Very bad news. It's very sad for the car owners and the guys at Power. Best of luck with getting the business back up and running soon.

yes he did. eek

Hard to recognise the one on the top of the lift as being anything more than a Tuscan from the exhausts - body completely gone.

That Tuscan outside (I think black with portland) looked beyond economic repair too.

Probably not as bad as I feared but not much consolation if one of your cars..

Fire Service must have got there quickly and either moved cars out or got them watered fast.
I hope the engine workshop all intact.

It such a shame, what is it with TVR's and electrical fires. There was one here only this week where a T350 had caught fire in the night.

Nightmare. To be fair to them, they are probably quite busy right now.

Cheers,

If it helps, just looks like smoke damage in that corner. To be fair to Power they've probably lost your details in the fire. Hope you get it back on the road soon chap.

And it's possible that they've lost customer contact details too.

I'm still waiting to hear about mine too, so if anyone is able to speak to Dom, could you ask about how best we get in touch?

mate that's rough. i did read that the computers were cooked though, so they might have to restore all their data before they can get contacts for everyone.

I realise this may not help, but as far as I'm aware the fire knocked out both the servers and the phones, so your phone number will have been lost too. My experiences with Dom are that he would ty his best to contact you.
