Knowsley Safari Park

Those monkeys are clinical. They spend half your trip studying your wipers and interior trim trying to work out how to destroy both.

The other half they do the damage, with the odd piss on your windscreen as an added bonus.

I love it, but am always happy to leave with a car intact.

You can drive round it and watch other silly fuckers having their cars vandalised. My kids were pissed off because their grandad wouldn't drive through it last week, but when he took me (in about 78 I think) the baboons had half the parts off our shitty old lada estate so he won't go near them.

Correct answer! park up the other side of the fence and watch the carnage.. haha!

You can avoid those pesky baboons by going through the other enclosure thankfully.
They broke the back washer on my car by pulling the cap off . I got off lightly to be fair

These fucking Scousers have no respect for other peoples vehicles.... If they arent stealing your hub caps they are bending you ariel or wiper blades....

Used to go through the enclosure, not too worried about a wiper or a washer jet, however, went to Longleat about 3 years ago, we paid extra to go in a big 4x4 truck with a guide, and witnessed a Ford Focus have all 4 rear parking sensors popped out, they were hanging about 2 inches down for a small period of time, before the monkeys came back and ripped them all clean out! Must be at least £500 to replace 4 parking sensors, and superficial damage to the bodywork.

Having seen that, I wouldn't risk it any more.

You don’t have to drive through the ape enclosure, you can go round.

I've booked it now. If I get a wiper ripped off I'll accept it. It's not as though the apes know they are like scousers.

Tip

When the big ape sits on your roof and starts taking a piss try an emergency stop.

Why go round when Gareth Bale might have the kettle on

I remember the school Summer outing was to either here, Alton Towers, Trenton Gardens, Southport, Blackpool or Rhyl

Took the kids when they were small, went through the monkey enclosure (in the car obviously - ha!), never again... they're bloody animals!
There was a gang of them, led by the usual Big Baboon who started on the wipers, aerial and wing mirrors. Found if you drove fast then applied the brakes it cleared the car! (Only joking Knowsley staff) the @ast!@ds managed to hang on!!

We have one at home now.. makes a lovely cup of tea , drinks it himself mind !!

What really, in a safari park as well. Who'd have thought that!!
