DAMAGE worth an estimated £45,000 was caused at a Norfolk dealership after a driver lost control of their car in icy weather and ploughed into three Fords on the forecourt.
The accident happened early on Monday at WS Kilbourn & Son in Mill Road, Hempnall. Nobody was hurt, although the car, reported to have been driven by a villager, overturned. The Fords were written off.

Dealership owner Mark Kilbourn told the Eastern Daily Press: ‘It happened about 6.30am. Three of our cars have been written off and a wall was damaged. I have been busy all morning cleaning up the mess. We are open as normal.’
