As the title of the thread says, had an unfortunate accident on the 27th, a couple of deer ran out in front of my car and I braked causing me to loose traction just before hitting a sheet of ice and then a post !

No deer were hurt, but the front bumper was snapped and I have some damage to the bonnet and light.

If anyone has a front S bumper (preferably EB) then I will be interested, obviously the damage to the bonnet may cost more than my excess to repair so It may be an insurance job.

Pm me please

I'm sure you know this already, but keep checking eBay. There's always bumpers going on there.

P.S am thinking about giving them a call myself as my front bumper seems to have more stone chips on it than a 20year old car, be interesting to know if they have a few in stock and what sort of price.

I hit an Emu just 14 hours after picking the Mini up from the dealers. I have ripped the plastic bottom bit ( Black bit down low) on my Cooper S

Very lucky. and actualy ran over it. For the people who aren't sure of teh size of the Emu

Think of bigbird from seasame street. It wasn't dead but it was in a world of pain.

So I know how your feeling. hope you get your car fixed soon.

Cheers
