last night i was taking the gf home when a lovely fox decided to go kamikaze and fling itself in front of me at 70mph. the extent of the damage is one fooked headlight, 1 fooked fog light and 1 comepletely fooked front bumper!! i had to drive home 12 miles with half a fox sticking out of the front and the smell of cooking meat which was real nice!

heres some pics i took this morning:







still not sure whether to go through my insurance or not as im fully comp but have an accidental damage excess of £250.

Hard luck dude!!! Suppose you were better hitting it than trying to avoid it and ending up backwards in a field!

Did the fox survive?

Probably not worth going through insurence IMO - if the damage comes to more than £250 i wouldnt have thought it would be enough to justify claiming and bumping next years premiums up
