Went to Long Leat safari park the other week, and on returning home found that there must have been an Omega loving monkey there, as I have lost the rear bump strip from the drivers side. Not a big deal I thought, until I have tried to find a replacement. It would seem that some Omega parts are now starting to become hard to find.

If anyone can help, I'm looking for the drivers side section in the photo, as the car looks sh** with it missing.

First & last time I went to one of those places near here, I had a Morris Traveller & had to watch as two bloody monkeys calmly inspected and then equally calmly ripped off both wipers! I couldn't drive off as half a dozen of the 'gang' were sat in the road in front of me with a collective 'Do you feel lucky punk' look!!!!

Call long leat auto spares. I hear they've got one going for a monkey

[plym ian]

 Seriously though this is one reason i wont go to them places, must be like driving through liverpool or something

Can you try the stuff that comes on a roll from a motor factors, haven,t used it myself but might be worth a try.

They should make stickers saying I survived the scrappage scheme and the long leat monkeys



If anyone goes again, put grapes and other fruits on your car to ensure some close up action

Won't go near them any more. Going back a while now..in fact Windsor Safari Park. Monkey tore a 15" full length strip of vinyl roof from my Victor FE.
Good luck in your search, I would have thought there would be some about

Similar experience at Knowsley Safari park, I got cocky and sprayed the wiper jets on the monkey sitting on the bonnet.He gave me a look as if to say " you're gonna regret that" and then proceeded to bite the jets out of the bonnet.I went into ford and  asked for a new pair, guy just said " monkeys?"

Never again, thats for sure. I've lern't my lesson.

Really. Cars should not be put in safari parks.  99% chance of it getting oppsed ...

I know theres a estate at the breakers near me il have a look for you.....

Seeing the video in EMDs related thread... I would question that the monkeys are actually being trained to do that, thereby rendering the parks liable for any damage caused, regardless of their small print

Thanks KSR that would be great. I all so need both front and rear towing eye covers if they are still on the car.
I'll PM you my phone number, give me a bell if you have any luck.

Ive just thought of a brilliant business venture. I open a car hire place that rents out old bangers for poeple that want to drive round these places without the fear of monkey ripping bits off of their pride and joy
