No, if you zoom in on the first photo you’ll see it between the car and the house.

Bad tidings indeed there . Glad to know you arrived after the event in a way, most injuries are sustained saving things which is normally done with the heart not the head ...
Obviously you can't save the trip button rubber ..but the number plate nose piece... ;)

Will you be looking to replace the Kat ...either one ?

I wouldn’t be against buying another one in the future… not high on the priority list at the moment.
However, it would be easier if it was an already Spanish registered model.
