Salt water won't do it any good in the short, medium or long term - but, there were no injuries, which is the main thing. The car does not appear to be badly physically damaged, but water immersion is never good news.

If the engine was running when the car hit the water, hydraulic lock (where water goes into the engine through the inlet) will mean bent con roda, damaged bores, damaged valve seats... not to mention all the electronics

That road was so bumpy. With suspension that firm and dirt its only going to end one way...

Also - what a genuinely nice guy.

Air intake for the engine appears to be on the roof, so he may have got away with that one.
