F'king Badgers!!!!

[payney]

Well I landed back in Heathrow Airport from a fantastic trip to New York absolutely breath taking and i want to go back it was that good.
Anyway on the way home from the airport i was feeling really jet lagged and tired so i said to Clare "why don't you take over from me and drive the 40 mins we have left to home", so she agreed and we swopped over. Well 400 metres into the journey ,bang !! we hit a f'king badger and this is what the little critter did to my car !!!!



Ah well at least we are ok ,it could have been worse.
Clare was really pi55ed about it though and couldn`t apologise enough, but i did tell her that accidents happen and not to worry.
Story ends well though, we have been on the internet and ordered another front splitter .Just got to wait for it now.In the mean time plastic ones back on the car.

They're a menace! MLC had a similar incident IIRC. Last few weeks I've had several near misses in the van...Don't fancy their chance much against 3 1/2 ton of speeding Merc!

Bad luck mate. You can copy my sig if you like.

I'm still scarred from my argument with Mr and Mrs badger!
