Broke a wing mirror off

Yep first major damage is a broken off wing mirror - driver's side, completely snapped off. SadSadSad It's not repairable too which is more annoying. Will attach a photo shortly

Don't even think of that!
My real one has been offroad on a body twisting route and (so far) showed no ill effects to the Pano Roof

Unfortunately not, I have gone in the opposite direction, and south. Just passed Fuerteventura on the way to Apapa, Douala and Abidjan........................... one thing's for sure, the sun is shining there, unlike the UK
