latest scores in the vehicle swimming.....Land rover 2. Mercedes sprinter 0

(1/1)

nellyscossy:
just got back after a bit of fun in my  two local fords  ...only to find two mercedes sprinters on two seperate occassions trying to do submarine impressions!!!!!!
maybe i shouldnt set an example to them letting them see me  drive my landy through with the water over my bonnet and 2 inches up my windscreen !!

because hey presto both drivers thought they'd have a go..neither got half way!!!!.

poor souls, the one driver thought a bit of wd40 would do the trick, both engines were locked solid

good job i had my waders on so i could find their towing eyes!!!

oh well with more rain falling now and more forecast ..then tommorrow should be good fun!!

TechnoTurkey:
Which ford is this mate, assume its not too far from me.  Although the snorkleless V8 gets upset when its over the top of the wheels!

bravo669:
when the river near me floods theres always some pillock, (usually in a jag or similar)that has a go and fails miserably!!

nellyscossy:
the ford that the vans got stuck in was at green lane ,hall green that one was about wheel depth..

the big one by me is at houndsfield lane,wythall/shirley...when i left that an hour ago it was reading 4ft on the marker and was about 40 metres  long...the marker usually reads about 8in less than it really is....and it is a fast flowing ford..great for some sideways wading!!!
