and what was the damage? A broken front indicator, popped the arch liner out and snapped 2 of the mounting brackets for the foglight That was it!

She was doing around 70mph prior to the accident and braked hard so I don't know how much speed she scrubbed off because I've not fitted her 4 pots yet () but she hit it with a big bang but there's no panel damage at all

Lucky day for her!! These scoobs are strong cars

 

Oh deer

Friend of mine hit a deer at 90mph in his 406 coupe......
Wrote it off- was a bit of a mess!

Lucky....

 

Are you going to ask the Deer to pay for the damage then?

 

copycat job for sebastian loebs attack on the bull?

Look at scoob while holding shopping trolley - feckoff great dent in your door.

Hit a small horse - a bit of broken plastic.

 

D'oh a deer? A female deer?

 

Friends parents hit a cow in a (then) new 'D' registered Granada and it opened the car like a sardine can.....

 

There's good eating on one of those....

 

My sister hit one in her Saxo once and did **** loads of damage as you'd imagine

 

She'd only had the indicators on there a month or so She had to modify the wiring to fit the new ones for some reason so I was running down the road last night looking for the wire because it pulled the whole indicator and the wiring out with it We found it though

 

She was VERY lucky. I got a right bo!!ocking from the rozzers in Scotland for speeding along the A82 (Glencoe/Rannoch Moor road). Loads of folk get killed each year after hitting deer on that one.

 

I had a bit of a accident last year with 3 deer all 3 jumped straight over a hedge and unlucky for them I hit 2 of them head on

Two died there and then and one got away


So In memory of that, I have this on the side of my Van

 

PMSL

 

I love the pics. Lets just hope that the third dear does not see that...it may come back for some revenge

 

See I have some compassion

 

she'd must have just winged it , not full on hit

 

I wrote my car a while ago outside Clumber park, I was lucky too, it was a big red stag, almost the size of a small cow. Impossible to miss them when they leap into the road.

She didn't have to finish it off with the jack then?

 

Oooh... nasty

I worry about deer when driving through or past the new forest but so far have only run over a squirrel, a wood pigeon (which was horrible as all the feathers flew up in the air covered in blood) and over an already mulched up fox

 

Huxley nice one mate The only thing I have hit is a duck at aound 90mph at 4.30.am It flew out of Stewatby lake and did'nt give itself enough height, It hit the top of my windscreen and I waited for it to go bang, but thankfully it didn't.
Cheers

Paul,

Glad Scoob and Sis are ok........Baby wasn't on board was she ?

 

She was mate She was sat in the back. She was so lucky, so very lucky to have only just clipped it with the corner of the bumper and not hit it full on. She thought from the bang that she'd done some serious panel damage.

When I went back to the scene to find the wire for the indicator there was no sign of the deer anywhere

 

Poor little mite (Baby) , glad they're all ok (inc deer)

 

Hi Rob

 

It turns out today that when she's washed it the gap between the headlight and sidelight (early shape classic) has closed up I haven't asked her where on the car that she hit the deer but I'd guess it was the passenger side front corner so I have no idea how it's affected the drivers side

 

Tell her to only wash it with 40C water next time

 

hahaha That'd be lost on her I know it would

 

I don't get it, someone's old dear got run over and all you lot can do is make sick jokes.
Heartless sods. I blame New Labour etc. etc. ad infinitum

 

Shouldn't we be blaming the police?
