I saw it and well, erm. Yeah. I am amazed the fiesta carried on going after JK drove it off that boat and near enough submerged it. The engine was well under water. How that didnt hydrolock I do not know.

It was quite impressive that it retained traction. Most cars would float at that depth!

That is also what I thought and being a loose surface under the water too I would guess.

Did the card shop actualy get hit on purpose?

 Will have to watch it again to check but the card shop has shutters that open up pretty much right across the front of the entrance so i guess it was staged, I certainly did not notice any damage in passing

Rob -- it was Festival place/Basingstoke

According to the current edition of LRO the Fiesta was waterproofed by the Marines guys who do the Land Rovers for beach landing craft assaults.  They seem to know what they're doing, so that explains why it fared so well!
