That's intriguing and very scary. You kept your cool, impressive stuff. Can't believe how deep the water I'd and how well the rr does.

Been that deep in mine a few times not a drop inside, not for quite that distance though, you have to know the road well as the water is level(obviously) but the road can drop away.....

It was a very stupid thing to do but we were committed and there was no turning back, luckily we made it through, I was adrenaliing myself as was SWMBO, she missed the deepest bit as she was shaking so much trying to get the video working on her phone. Well impressed with the RR though and only about a pint of water got in, luckily Thames has started to drop, maybe do a video of the lane when it's not flooded 2005 Range Rover Vogue with Supercharged Accessories GONE 2001 Discovery TD5 ES GONE 1995 Discovery 300 tdi GS |

Nice steady driving, just what's needed, you see people going in hard and fast and the force of the water can break thing under the car (the US military are looking at ways to use water as an explosive after all a see Future Weapons on Discovery Channel!)
