Unfortunately the car in front plus the Pug despatched two deer, then failed to gralloch either of them. Besides I fear I have a touch of gout already.
Seems there was another wounded casualty in the ditch that the RSPCA had to finish off. Looks like it was a doe and two fawns, tragic really they're lovely animals.
Getting back to the 307, it looks worse than I first thought, but still saveable. As well as the front wing, its going to need the bracketry its attached to plus the front bumper, (which is pretty much the whole front bodywork), the light unit plus whatever holds that in place and various trim bits. There's a fair dent in the sill and the leading edge of the front door skin is folded inwards, but doesn't foul anything. Far as I can tell, the wheels, suspension etc. all look OK.
She drove it home in the end thus avoiding paying for recovery, after the AA man tied all the loose bits up with a bag of tie raps and stuck an indicator lamp in the remains of the light unit to appease plod. Main thing is no one was hurt, though Mrs Doggy is still fairly shaken up.
Now I needs to find a find someone scrapping a 307, (Restyling) in a fetching shade of metallic blue - KMF - RECIFE BLUE according to SeviceBox or KMFD** according to the sticker on't doorpost
