They picked up a puncture near the start of the stage.

Thanks to everyone.

At the start of Rheola we asked where Nick was marshalling in stage as I was going to toot the horn as we went past. Couldn't miss him! Jumping up & down on the top of a bank as we approached the corner waving & clapping madly

Yes, but it is good for the ego when you vertake a car 4 miles into the first stage!

The damage:

Front bumper damage to front N/S, needs minimum of a new plastic grill and think we could repair with some alloy the backing part of the main bumper.Repair to rear quarter panel, paint rear quarter, supply and paint new rear bumper. Repair and paint bottom of both doors, re paint front bumper.

I might be able to save you a couple of pounds I think the missing one might be in the back of my disco, still covered in Welsh mud !.... I'll check I haven't opened the doors since I parked it up after getting back from RGB!

A couple of quid?  These come from MSport!!!! Unfortunately I think you will only find half a mudflap in there as it was damaged before it fell off.
