Thats a nice courtesy car! We were given a 63 reg astra 2.0tdci which the missus found rather rapid. Not bad at all.

Definately. I sent this photo of the gate where the cow got out to the insurance company too, which helped I think.
And here's where I hit the cow. Gate is just behind van, and I hit the cow near the exit of the corner.

I got told I was getting an Insignia, so this was a nice surprise.

One of her farmyard pals (the chicken) dared her to Allan.

I nearly did this the other day. I was crawling at about 15mph because the road was so shite and since it went straight through the middle of this cow field with no fences between the cows and cars. I came up to one that was right at the side of the road dead sedate just standing there then it decided to go batshit crazy for no apparent reason - bolted in front of the motor and sent me into a ditch. Luckily the only damage was a manky wheel and surrounding arch but I nearly hit the fucker.

Cows are strange animals. Proper schizo types.

Pointless fact: Cows have feelings and get upset if you laugh at them.
