A van had a head-on crash with 4125 whilst being on 41 yesterday. I have been told that a van driver was messing with his sat-nav and veered onto the wrong side of road.

You say that... I know it says it happened about midnight but it also mentions the top deck of the bus, and as far as Im aware the night 74 is run by E200s
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Is it too badly damaged for possible preservation?

The reason I ask is,  doesn't Aston Manor have the previous 4041, so it would have been nice if they had the current 4041 as well!

Holy cow! I was just on this bus today.
