Sure, they look all cute and fluffy - but when you hit one you're lucky not to flip the car! Wombats are like miniature tanks... solid little fuckers.
Anyway, he's crunched in the whole front end of his car. Major repair bill coming up.

It's nice that he rang me first tho.... wants to be all independent and stuff, but when the shit hits it, he called his Mum first :)
 
Pity bump...

...so you only have half of the replies to your own thread.
 
Wombats are nasty. They can write off a car and walk away like nothing happened. And they move fast too. First time I saw a wombat run, I was shocked. If memory serves, they can do 40 km/hour. They also bite.
I hope your sons car is a repair job and not a write off.

I won't know till I see it later today. But from what he described it sounda like radiator.and fan, splitter and stone tray.
He hit right in the middle, so I'm hoping the tyres and steering are ok.

I'm hoping your son is ok and if he hit a wombat it's ok too.
 
why did he let the wombat get in his car in the first place? it seems rather foolish.

he was trolling the wombat.

"hey you, get in my car!"

"oh boy, a free ride!"

PUNCHES WOMBAT IN THE FACE

seems mean but who knows what the spawn of wq finds fun.
 
I had a threesome with Keith Urban and a wombat. I'd post pictures but the bloody wombat won't sign a release. Keith is surprisingly ok with it.
 
Fine - be as horrid as you want...
But believe me when I tell you you WANT me onside when organising repairs.
I just saved my son $2 1/2 thou on his repair bills.
The front splitter/bumper alone was $2k, and I sourced one today for $250! Picking it up tomorrow :D

Is this in Australian dollars or real dollars?

Fake internet dollars who have orgies with other fake currencies who may or may not have cancer while driving away from wild fires in classic automobiles.
