I hit a kangaroo in my 1995 BMW 318i, a solid car by any measure. I was doing about 80km per hour.
The entire front left hand side was dented, there was a 7 inch deep dint in the bonnet, the oil guards underneath the engine were torn off, the front left light was impacted inches into the engine compartment, the radiator was damaged severely, the front was so pushed in that the fan and the radiator melded as the radiator was pushed back into the engine compartment. The car was written off by the insurance company.
The kangaroo hopped off into the night.
