So you've taken the narrowest route through a tiny feed stream? SO what?

Try 'wet roads' as above and see what you are brave enough to do?

A word of warning - be sure your wheel bearings are water tight before fording. I didn't.

Ok, it was on road, but the principle's the same.

Ignore the troll. I doubt he's taken his Volvo diesel estate through anything much deeper than that anyway!

have had water half way up the windscreen before- too scared to take piccies though! had water coming in the heater vents- although not as much as i had feared.

Fantastic advert for the little petrol Suzuki !

Just to impress even further, take a look at the water line on the soft top before he went in. It obviously wasn't the first time he'd done it that day!

[GTIR]

Thats impressive!

Took me ages to find it again, but this guy wins!
