For some reason he decided to ignore all the signs saying "Not Suitable for Road Vehicles" and then proceeded to go into the ford without checking the depth 1st,
Anyway after a fair few hours had past and all the water had been forced out of the block she ran!! Could not believe how much water was in the thing, could see a trail behind it all the way home!! She isn't 100%, think it may have bent a rod but still runs even if it's a lil smoky!!
Hope the photos work as using my Ifail and hope you all enjoy people
Well that didn't work!!!
