    Sad news:

    At this moment, a large fire is going on at the Dutch Ferrari/Maserati dealership MUNSTERHUIS in Hengelo, The Netherlands. It seems that the whole building is destroyed, probably with quite a lot of (modern) Ferraris and Maseratis ....

    I will keep you up-to-date!

    Yes, they do (or did), but I haven't seen a Koenigsegg at Munsterhuis for at least two years. Cars present (two weeks ago), were mainly "normal, modern" Ferraris, but of course, still a big loss ... :(

    I wonder what the cause is.

    any chance it turns out to be Munsterhuis' Renault-departement?

    Well, if it is their Ferrari department, this is what they have now, and probably has burned up.

    It's their building in Hengelo, where they have Ferrari, Maserati and Chrysler. Renault and Jaguar are in another building, located in Enschede.

    Latest news is that a number of cars could be rescued. They have separate rooms (with good fire protections), so maybe some rooms were saved. More news later ...

    Latest news from local TV station (RTV Oost):

    ..... "All Ferraris and Maseratis burned down" .....

    :(

    The cars they could save were Jeeps, Dodges and probably some Chryslers.

    Auchhh, this is looking bad .... :(

    For sale: Ferraris, all with low milage, service history, smoking engine and custom black crackle finish. Bring your own rope and horse to remove from the premises. Complementary ashtray with each purchase.

    I wonder if it was an insurance job? It wouldn’t be the first place to go up that was supposed to be stuffed with high-end items. A fire can hide quite a bit. The answer will be in the cause of the blaze I guess.

    Well, according to online newspapers there were some Ferrari's and old racecars in the showroom with values varying from five hundred thousend to nine hundred thousend euro's. So it is really possible that there was an Enzo in the showroom indeed.
    Firemen tried to push the cars outside but they couldn't because the cars were all locked (insurance demand) .
