    Fire with three fatalities at classic car venue

    Sad situation being reported in national news, three fatalities and two seriously injured in the blaze.
    Story in BBC

    From class car magazine Magneto” Bicester Heritage, or Bicester Motion as the larger business is now called, is one of the great classic car world success stories: a formerly derelict and 'at risk' RAF bomber base that has been skilfully and sympathetically turned into a huge hub for all things automotive. The fire broke out early on Thursday evening, seemingly in one of the smaller hangers, Building 79, used to house tenants' historic vehicles and spares. Locals reported huge plumes of smoke, visible for miles around, and the sound of "explosions".

    I was in Bicester Monday and there are Porsche specialist among the growing automotive hub. Condolence to those who lost loved ones
