Guts and glory....

 

[ronk]

I bet he was spittin’ feathers !

 

[Buckley06]

Omg how fast was he going, or was the bird shot out of a cannon

 

[Nictrix]

How old is that?
Look at the phone.

 

[ronk]

It’s certainly old - I don’t know if it was fired from the bird gun for test purposes?

 

[Bing]

German car - if he was travelling autobahn speeds then, maybe, I guess. Though I’m pretty sure if that had happened to me I’d have crashed

 

[MJJamieson]

If you look at the headrest there’s no head shape shadow in the splatter, same on the seat base. I don’t think there was a driver sat in that car when it happened.

That's nothing, I was driving last night , roof down past some trees and Bang, WTF I thought. Bloody great big bird shite right on the windscreen, in my line of sight :roll:

I was out for a blast in this one summers evening back in 2006 just before I sold it. I hit a female pheasant with the osf suspension at about 70mph....not funny ! Ripped the brake line out of the caliper, bent the bottom wishbone and smashed the cycle wing and headlight to pieces. I was only wearing a T-shirt and was covered in debris including blood, guts, feathers and egg yolk ! Good job I had a full face helmet on or I reckon it may have been curtains

I think he would have “ducked” fairly quickly!

I would certainly have needed to clean the driver's seat too.

The old Nokia fixed carphone. Or motorola maybe? :|

 

[ronk]

I remember when they were state of the art !
For certain tho, mobile phones have change more radically than the Porsche design.

 

[Mr Tidy]

Wow, that is a serious mess!

Maybe I was lucky when a pheasant hitch-hiked on my 1st Coupe! :lol:
