Christ, how much damage did the Muntjac do? I had a Canada Goose go into the front grill/rad while progressing at speed in an E30 M3 once, that was quite expensive.

I was lucky, I drive a 530D BMW and he went under both wheels on the drivers side with minimal damage. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst I ever saw was a rental Nissan Skyline Sedan that had hit a 'Roo on the Stuart Highway back when there was no speed limit. They don't tell you not to drive at night in the outback for no good reason! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mate of mine hit a full grown stag deer many years ago and it totally destroyed his car, he was lucky to survive it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a sizable lump, if you hit them head on then you are in a world of hurt for sure and so is the muntjac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Siam? 8 hours ago, KhunDon said: The first glance had me fooled, the second didn’t. 🤣 Correct. MrsJL had friend and her hubby visit yesterday. We did a three tourist attractions yesterday. Mini Siam, Floating Market and Chinese Temple. It was very hot and sunny and I get sun burnt. It was the first time I had visited both Mini Siam and the Temple and I took a load of photographs. Mini Siam was quiet which was great. The downside was normal sized spotlights illuminating the exhibits. I have gone through all the photographs but am going to have further work to do in removing said spotlights with photoshop. Floating Market was busy and I was not impressed. Chinese Temple good, but I have not even started on photographs from there yet. Age catching up. Got back to condo around 1630, had shower and a bite to eat, laid on bed and slept for about 2.5 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
