Re: has your bullbar saved your life?

I haven't had on save my life so far, but I've talkted to so many people who's bullbars have saved their lives, it just aint funny. My worst experience so far was a glancing blow on the front left of the bonnet in my little gemini. It was at night, had my lights dimmed and hit it at 80k's. As I said, glancing blow, and it crumpled the front left quarter panel, destroyed the lights and grill, and bent the radiator housing back, buckling the bonnet. Nevermind if I had been going any faster, if I had hit it square on I would have been buggered, with the front end of the car destroyed, that is if the roo didn't come up and join me in the car via the front windscreen. I now have a little budgie bar on the front of the car, it won't do anything but it makes me feel a bit better, and I won't ever own a vehicle without a decent bullbar again.
