Will the roo end up on the plate?

The electronic version of the wind version?

I used to have the wind ones on the car. Never sure if they worked though one day I noticed a horse in a horse float in front of me that was pretty upset that I was behind it and wondered if this was the reason.

Alright if it's a fresh kill, think of the bucks you'll save at the butcher.

Could put them towards ya new bullbar! :cool:

Nothing wrong with running green coolant in a 300tdi :)
If your steel bar is bending at 70-80kmh I'd be suggesting you go looking for a better one, my ARB has sent skippy to his maker at 100km/h and has nothing to show for it :cool:
Unlucky mate, fingers crossed it gets a speedy recovery (And some shiny new bits :) )

I notice the coolant is green so I presume it's a v8 Defenders are pretty tough cars when fixed Iwould put an ARB bull bar on it I hit a grey going out to Oakey one morning the ARB bar saved the car and no damage at all to the bar.

I have hit a few roos over time, the last one in the wife's disco 2 with a bull bar. The Roo wasn't particularly big about chest height. Green coolant? Must be the filter on the camera, it is supposed to be OAT brown colour. ;)
this is the first time I have been stranded by hitting a Roo.

Whatever placebo of choice works for you! 😄

Google Doppler effect, then study frequency response, then look at the audible hearing range of a Kangaroo...

Those devices, including the electronic ShuRoo have been tested and proven to Not work.

Comments like above hold no scientific weight.

I drove 2000km a week every week through Northern SA for 6 months and never hit a roo... Then in one swing hit 3 roos, an Emu, a Fox and a walking steak factory (thankfully at sub 25km/h) - they crap big time!!!!!
Never hit another animal since! And I've just returned from a 2000+km trip offroad.

However, if you insist - I can offer a great deal on a Hiclone, Electrostatic strip, Polariser and Fuel catalyst.
:) :D :)

Just the wind ones, thats why I say 'up to six', the buggers have a habit of scaring themselvs off.

I really have no idea if they actually do anything but 12 years and a $$$$load of dirt roads, haven't connected so far.

been close a few times.

Cheap insurance for me cause if I break it, I have to fix it.

"Been close a few times"

Wouldn't that VERY statement indicate that they don't work?

If they worked - the creatures would have turned away and you wouldn't have "come close"...

Something to think about...

On the subject of hitting roos , I live in the bush & there are lots of roos on the roads , & I do lots of miles . I find driving with lights on low beam , I hit about 80% less roos . I reckon they don't get dazzled & can get out of the way .
