I imagine you are gutted and feel for you mate.
The norty fox should be ferriting around town dutbins not jumping out in the path of a TVR, I blame its parents for giving it an interest in great cars instead of trash.
Hopefully you will be able to get it sorted soon without any probs.

Oh dear. Comiserations.
My car still bears the faint scars from a very close shave with a pheasant - I think it's claws must have glanced accross the o/s wing.
It's amazing how much damage these beasts inflict on cars. I commute between Stafford & Cannock each day, through some picturesque scenery on the edge of Cannock Chase, and the number of near misses I've had with deer is frightening. I've seen a couple of cars that have hit deer, early in the morning, and the damage is collosal.
'Spose we should all be grateful we're not in Roo or Moose territory!

Saw the aftermath of one of them in Sweeden. Volvo had hit big deer type thing, draw a line from the bumper to the headrests and that was the new shape. Peeps inside were OK I think but blood and guts and deer (mostly in one bit) everywhere. On a dual carrage way/motorway.

coala - 'being in Sweden' i meant the event being described being in Sweden, anything described as a big deer type thing in Sweden might jsut be a moose. Haven't ever been to Sweden but wouldn't say no to a trip to the land of the plentiful blonde, if fact were is my passport??...................
Aahh, i misinterpreted that. You need to be very far up north in Sweden to see a deer and on those roads you would not like to drive your Tiv anyway. But mooses are always a threat. We actually have miles and miles of fence along major roads to protect us.
The blonds however are always around, best season right now actually...

My condolences on your recent rif with that silly fox. He obviously never learnt his green cross code. That or it was sleepwalking. Or deaf! How can you NOT hear a Griff approaching?
You must be gutted. But not as gutted as the furry mess left in the road.
Hope it gets fixed up and looking like new very soon.
