		Ruan's DT springs to mind... Other than that not a lot I can think of. When I had my first 306 I used to just crash into the fence at work... Yep, that's parked.

		oposite out old house was a bloomin great off road landrover that was used for proper off roadind. 
it had a massive reinforced bumper for knoking down trees. 
this is what my mrs hit when reversing out our drive.  
thus a big feckin dent in the back which is still their to date. 
needless to say that no damage was done to the landy.

Sounds like it could have been a honey badger.
 
I mashed a pheasant at 85 last year, cracked a hockey stick but other than that no damage. 
I was however picking bits of brain off of my car for ages!

		when i was alot younger i used to help the local milk man and one morning i decided to jump in and move his float.how hard can i be. after all you only have forward, neutral and revers and a hand brake.  
i took the hand break off and pushed the pedal down and instead of going forward i went back. 
i just froze and with my foot flat down i reversed into a lamp post and the light fell down and landed on top of the float. oops. 
didnt help him again after that.

		Hit a pheasant last year, flew straight into my front wheel. Heard it go round a few times and then shoot out the back. Turns out it did a pretty good job of rolling my arch though

		I was hit by a guy in a ford escort once,  he drove into the back of me at a set of traffic lights.  Smashed a massive hole in his front bumper with my towing eye.  Not a scratch on mine.  I just laughed at him. He had been trying to feed a KFC to his daughter in the passenger seat while driving.  What a knob

		Are we counting just the accidental stuff or all the stuff Ive hit on purpose to? 
 
In rough chronilogical order. 
 
A traffic island 
Many other traffic islands in revenge attacks for the first one jumping out on me 
A Vauxhal zifira (my  first 306 write off) 
A lamp post sideways at 60mph (my second 306 write off) 
An xantia that i punted into a polo on the motorway, this wasnt my fault as one of my back seat passengers was being that much of a knob i had to turn round and batter him thus taking my eyes off the road, thankfully was only doing 10mph. 
Many many things in my mondeo as i used to use the tow bar to stop me when i got far enough back into parking spaces 
A fire engine pass through a width restriction, a long story but essentially i had no intention of slowing for the restriction and the cobbled bit of the fire engine pass was incredibly slippery and i clipped the kerb. 
Then not alot for a very long time (that i can remember) till i hit the bollard in the 6 and wrote that off 
and a BMW 330 that cut into my lane on a dual carriageway corner and i couldnt brake quick enough 
 
Also: 
Hunderds of traffic cones, well they are designed so you can run them over safely. 
Several animals 
The odd person (mainly my best mate when he gets too big for his boots and needs taking down a peg or 2) 
My best mates shit fiesta repeatedly a la top gear on james may 
 
 
 
 
Theres probably a load more ive forgotten but they fit cars with bumpers for a reason.

		In my megane I hit a badger, took out passenger side headlight, wing, front and rear door.  
Hit a pheasant in my rover, but I was breaking heard him hit as I was breaking, but he flew off anyway when I came to a stop.  
 
Reversed into a small tree while learning and stratched the door sill in a small wall.  
 
Lift off over steer onto a curb by homebase in my 306.  
Porsche and golf ran into me in my car.  
 
A cat (poor thing)  
A number of birds and small animals.
