Why do I have to find the suicidal Pheasants...

Following 2 cars and guy who's at the front is doing about 28mph in a 60, the chap infront of me in his saxo decides to overtake at 30mph, so I patiently wait so I can see clearly then nail it, just as I get past poxy saxo I'm set upon by a suicidal pheasant....

Results in left mirror cover cracked, all 3 screw fixings snaped clean off and it left dangling down my door.

Cant believe bloody it I've got it all booked in for a top of the range Valet tommorow ready for the Skeggy run at the weekend.

Anybody know how much a door mirror is likely to cost... and then I guess a few quid ontop to spray and fit.

I FLAMING HATE WILDLIFE...

And what did the Saxo do to justify 'poxy' status

SWRTWannabe

Someone I used to work with hit a pheasant in her Mondeo. Took out the front bumper and smashed the radiator Bloody thing didn't have insurance either. Should be a law against them.

The Zohan

Saxo - It should have hit the Pheasant instead of the scoob - i think?

scoob_babe

be thankful it wasn't a deer!

DannyH

Or a hair (think thats the write spelling) as my bro hit one of them and it mashed his bumper and then about a month latter i came down the same streach of road in my cossie and just avoided two of the little $hits, that would have been very exspensive

Hope you get it sorted chap

I was'nt a pleasent phucker I must say.

Reminded me of the last time I had an encounter with wildlife, traveling to Cirencester via Witney and ended up chasing Bambi at about 30mph whichever way I swerved he went the same sodding way... I eventually stopped and he then jumped a hedge leaving me with smoking tyres and trafic queing up beeping horns and waving frantically thinking I was just unpacking me picnic.

I'm sure it was just a drunken bunch of them just seeing who was the bravest playing chicken wth cars.



Probably a stag doo....

LMFAO @ Dazza.
That has to be the worst punchline ever.
Worked on me though!!

I had the misfortune of hitting not one, not two but three pigeons in seperate places on the way to Peterborough last Sunday. By the time I got there i had more feathers on the front of the car than paint!

They must be dozy in a morning cos it was about 5am.

Just what i needed, especially as I had picked the car up form the paint shop on the Wednesday!

i know somebody who hit 3 deer at once one day and wrote his car off then he had to run 2 over again to kill them rather than leaving them to suffer at the side of the road.

Got two sparrows and a pheaseant in one week with my 309Gti, jeeze how many feathers come out of a sparrow, the pheaseant had the last laugh though, going to knockhill coming round one of the nice fast bends on the way there, i.e. one of the bends if you get it wrong you drop twenty feet into the field, and theres a blooming pheaseant right on the line I'm taking, can't lift off or I'll end up backwards in the field oh bugger it it'll move, wrong hit with the drivers side front wheel then the back wheel no damage except the damn thing exploded it's inards right up the side of the car, yuk.

Tino

Travelling down the motorway one day at about ehm '70' a bird (feathered variety) hits the windscreen. It(the bird)quite literally exploded blood and guts everywhere.How the hell it didn't break the glass I'll never know.

New To Scoob

Tino I know who you are, and there is no chance you were doing 70, you must have been slowing down

It's gota be summat to do with Peterborough birds....

thats where I hit mine, but she had the law out pretty sharpish, then they slapped her aswell....

Teach her to drag the shopping over the rear quater.

KaraK

hmmm... not encountered a suicidal pheasent yet, plenty of rabbits though (I hit 3 in 2 trips!) luckily they don't do any damage. A friend of mine was doing 70-ish down the '62 once and hit a stray cat, it ripped the radiator clean out of the ca!
