Thought I'd have a blast to Whitby for a coffee Monday as you do! when you've spare time on your hands and the sun was shinning.
At around 80/90 mph I hit a pair off pheasants which sounded like they had gone under the car, but unknowing to me I'd given one a lift. I had noticed as i passed through the villagers on my way to Whitby, people giving me more than a passing glance, then in Whitby people where pointing and as i parked up, this old couple came up to me and the old guy said "you having chips with that" pointing to front of the car.
Cost of new fog lamp 110 quid

I hit a pigeon at about 80 once. When I pulled up on at home my mum and dad came running out panicking as there was blood all over the front of my car!

Cats have since developed a habit for pissing on my front bumper :thumbsdown:
 
ouch.. i hit a single pheasant in my old celica... it was only 30mph, but it was like the awkward moment... when you a re crossing people on the street and you both move to the same side of the pavement..... it smashed into the rad, broke my front splitter and covered the engine bay in feathers. :headbang:
 
:lol: Ok it's not funny that you had to replace the fog lamp for £110, but I can imagine the thoughts going through people's heads when you drove around with that on the front!
 
I remember when I was a kid, my Dad had a Volvo 850, driving down a country B road at about 60 when he hit a badger. This wasn't funny, there was a loud thud so Dad pulled over and stopped the car. Said badger had taken the entire front light cluster out and removed the front left wing too!
 
I took a Wood Pigeon to the windscreen / A pillar of the Zed a few months back. Bounced off just fine (I still ducked mind...?!?!) However, it did mean that I had a pretty cool blue stain on the windscreen :)

Otherwise no damage thankfully...well, not to the Zed. The pigeon was fucked.
 
Happened to me in the Freelander. The car in front flicked it up and I had blood and guts hanging off the wing mirror, the Pheasant smacked into the front of the bonnet and stuck there. It's wing was flapping around in the wind.
Looked quite comical really. Not for the Pheasant obviously. :cry:
