Australian Rover 75 For Sale - with bonnet ornaments

A good friend of mine near Canberra has his 75 up for sale - the bonnet ornaments are optional extras - but they do a lot of damage to your bonnet when hit at speed.......

They look so cute, don't see anything like that in the UK.

Only occasionally see Deer by the roadside, they can do a lot of damage if hit.

Try looking down in Sussex................. there is a growing and thriving colony of Walliby's down there and has been for many decades.

The dealers over here used throw two of those in the boot on every sale !!!
Those ones are just babies !!! There cousins out there in the red centre are not somthing you wish to hit - the big reds are about 6ft tall and will total your car !!!

Couple of loose wallabies on the fens....
Roo steaks are nice (from Lidl) very low fat and quite tender...

Between the roos and the rabbits, in the summer they eat everything thats got a bit of green in it!!
Farmers love em - not !!
They reckon they eat as much as sheep!!
Seems only right you guys have some roos, after all you guys gave us the rabbits !!
