4x4 vehicles becoming trapped ???

Simon Ould took this photo of flooding in Hemyock, Devon. He says: "The village was completely cut off for a time, with even 4x4 vehicles becoming trapped in the raging torrents."

I'm sure this Disco is still moving through the water. Confused

Nah - brake lights on. Had to stop to let numpties cross road. Everyone can spread it - Anyone can catch it. Stay home - the life you save can be your own!

Don't think so......no brake lights. Just headlights I think?

As already said, well within the capabilities of the Disco. Greatest concern, I would have thought, would be the electrics shorting on the trailer.

Also showing tail lights on the trailer. Overall I'd say the Disco was doing just fine... Thumbs Up ...

Be true to yourself. That way happiness lies...

Of course there was probably water pouring in to the car through badly fitting doors and seals. It is an old Disco after all... Whistle

Disco should be fine but, being a Mk1 Disco, it's more likely to dissolve through rust before it gets stuck! Wink
