    Wow, that must have been some rabbit he'd hit. I'd like to see how the passenger compartment coped with such an impact.
    Hope all survived.

    They are pretty rare but the Mirage inparticular is more so. Shame really as it's a decent little geriatrics runaround. The blue rinse brigrade over here prefer the Honda Jazz or Nissan Micra...Thank God I ain't gone Blue Rinsed yet.

    Ugh that's just awful. Looks like every body panel has deformed.

    It must have just happened? I wonder if the engine was still warm.

    toyota yaris

    Mitsubishi L200 or Outlander hybrid sell well

    I very rarely see a Mitsubishi here in West Yorkshire, I suppose it's dependant in which part of the country you are. I've been to York, Harrogate, Ripon in fact all over Yorkshire and only seen three Mirages.
    The elderly, of which I'm one, in my part of the country prefer the Jazz and Micra, they're all over the place, the Kia Picanto/ Hyundai i10 also sell well here.

    Hi there itschad I looked up Ripon, North Yorkshire and it's a feast for the eyes. The historic city centre is just something I would love to see in real life.

    I still plan on visiting Europe 4th week in May 2020, however I won't be in England. I think I am doing Ireland, and then in a few years England, as well as some other spots in the world. But I need more time for my Japan trip plans.

    Hello Dspace9, appreciate your reply. I do alot of shooting around Ripon and indeed worked there for awhile. I have to say, with no disrespect to the natives, it is not too good a place to visit, nothing wrong with the good folk of that locale (apart from they are breathing) but there is very little reason to visit the place except for the catherdral RiponCathedral.org.uk

    I would have to say the best reason to go there is to proclaim that You had left it.
    If you do visit the North of the UK I can very very highly recommend York, steeped in history although nowhere near London. It has Viking and Roman history by the bucket load, beautiful city centre with quaint olde world shopping streets and of course York Minster. A wealth of history you'd enjoy so much more than Ripoff, oh, sorry, Ripon..
