I wonder how a 'lesser' van would have fared?
So glad no one was injured!

I'd say more like unlucky to have parked under a tree that fell a couple of feet to the rear and all would have been well!

My 'lesser' van has a steel roof. That looks like cheap sh!t fibreglass.

We're always very cautious in high winds - particularly of the sort that you get in southern Spain in the winter . We spent a sleepless night under a swinging electricity cable once - moved out immediately next morning .
When we arrived, in very high winds at the camperstop in Vera, they very kindly told us to park right next to the reception building in the disabled space, as it was far too dangerous to park higher up the site.
I think it's the one thing I don't like about Spain in the winter.
