I hit a roo :(

Dead centre at the front so the bonnet is all pushed up, grille is smashed, radiator etc etc

I can now see under the bonnet from the sides, even though it's closed, cos it curves up LOL

That sucks! hope it all gets sorted soon!

It wasn't random at all - You were targeted by this active marsupial terrorist herd.

I think it's the same one that tried to get you in Shepperton during the the SAU Nationals 2012 ??

Conspiracy Theory !!!!

X fingers insured .............

(Ps. Roo distracted by glow from sun burnt bewbs)

Haha I think they're all out to get me.... I've had many near misses since Shepparton. Usually I can see them coming and work out a manouvre but this one came out of nowhere... I think it literally jumped out of the dark to a few cms in front of my car in one leap.... hit it at 80km with no time to brake :(

I hope you took it to the hospital.

Roos are always sneaky jumpers ! I've learnt that their defensive tactic is to "confuse" a predator by immediately changing their direction when they hop along; which is why a lot of cars hit them which is why a lot of Roos hit cars.

Did the Roo have insurance?

If the front was smashed in, the yellow one might have been me :(

it was in the morning around 8:20am the yellow was heading down towards wanniassa. From the damage your talking about its wasnt you unless if im getting blind.One jumped infront of the car in Hume early morning hours was very lucky i was going slow enough to stop.

I need to make sure im covered if i hit a roo.JustCar doesnt cover me from what ive just seen but im also too young for Shannons or any other one willing to insure a youngen. If i ever hit one ill make sure it doesnt die so that I tortue it later on for the damage.

The black R34 could have been me. Havent lived in Canberra long but yet to see another black 34. Seen heaps of Skylines around, wish I knew about this thread earlier on.

as i was exiting the richardson roundabout, i think i went over an oil patch and my car went sideways freaky shit. then in he middle of the struggle to gain control I spotted a black r34.i would like to thank the guys at fifth gear, otherwise would have panicked and written my car off
