I love how someone suggests he would have been fine if it was a land rover. looking at my rotton footwells im suprised that stone chips dont break through it and hit me in the nuts never mind a tree.
I would like to say ive never had that experience myself but its not easy trying to live your life constantly with a big log between your legs.
:lol: :^o :^o :^o :lol:

Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "He's got wood!"
Ouch!

A few years ago a freind of mine had a mk1 golf cabrio.
He was travelling along the road behind a wood lorry. Somehow one of the fence stakes fell from the lorry. My mate drove over it, and it went up through the boot floor (Pointed end first), but could not penetrate the boot door. In turn, this flipped his car over twice and landed on the wheels again. With the steak still in the car.
The cops who rescued him, said they had bever seen anything like it.
He had a fewbumps and bruises, but recovered fully in a couple of weeks.
The car was a write off.

Reminds me of a fellow club member competing in a comp safari a few years back. The site was also used for landfill and whilst travelling top speed along a straight level section a front wheel threw up a steel rod that pierced the floor panel and his leg!!!!! It took a while to get him out as the rod was jammed fast in the floor panel as well as his calf.

Getting a log jammed under the tranny case skid or rock rails seems to be a occupational hazard recently.... :afro:

Ok, next time I recce something and find bits of tree on piste, I'm getting out and moving them. Even if it is raining!

Suffering from log jams? use Senacot!

I've had a log come up through the floor pan on my series3 doing a trial section!
less than 5 mile an hour, and my mate in the passenger seat had leg probs for a month after!!
