heres one for for ya ! i work in car sales for hyundai....(dont ask) but as a reault i have a company car, which allows me to have my scooby for my toy, now at this time, i was driving a hyundai coupe TSIII nothing amazing, but quite a nice looking car with all the toys, i met a girl and we were due to go out for our first drink.......... now up came the problem, which car do i take her in?? it was topic of the day at my work!!lol anyway we all decided i would take to coupe . as it was reliable, chances of me getting stopped by the old bill were slim, and i prob wouldn scare here in it!! so......... picked her up, went for drink, of coarse told her about my lil baby parked at home!! was a nice evening... until............. driving home down the A2 was a HUGE pheasant!! im mean BLOODY MASSIVE!! was more like a small cow with feathers!! lol it was raining hard, was nothing i could do but hit it!! BANG!! pulled over bit later. bumper was smashed to pieces!

and im sure ur all thinking exactly same as i was ...........THANK F**K I DIDNT TAKE THE SCOOBY!! LOL

so took the coupe in next day at work,, ' how did the date go??' hmmm was ok, coupe needs a bumper!! lol

Re: close call
 

Not often on a first date that a bird puts a hole in your car. :D

Deffo the right choice then to leave the scoob safely tucked away at home. :nod:

Re: close call

I love phesants I do.

After stopping for a load of them in the road when I was younger (1989) and getting rear ended by another car, I vowed never to stop for a pheasant in the road again!

My record in one go is 8! :nod: :shock: :lol:

Have to say the front splitter on the Scoob is great for a clean kill.

And I have graphics available "Not the 9 oclock news trucker hedgehog splat" stylee.

Re: close call
 

i think even a splitter would have stuggled against this 1!! i was REALLY BIG lol, it saw me coming and was like ' im not bloody moving.... go round me!! u in ur noisey car!!' ...... bless. i didnt actually hear it say that, but i could see it that, that was what it was thinking, in its eyes!!! ..................... think i may have had too much coffee ?? lol
