I thought this might appeal to some

Maybe it can be a competition for amersfoort greatest number of splats on travels, not too sure how tony is going to get it on the front of the jumbo though

I'll just roll down the window and hold it outside.

Ack, don't remind me...

While driving home from last years meet, the part between Helsingborg and Gothenburg (roughly 220km / 137miles) at between ~9.30 and 11 pm, was so thick with bugs (mainly mosquitos) that I had to stop 3 times to refill the washer fluid tank (6.5l / 1.43gaUK / 1.72gaUS). Halfway I could no longer read the front license plate...

Took a while to get'em all off with the high pressure hose the next day.
