Ah yes Sir Tig but where is the fun in going into a muddy bog and getting stuck up to your wheel arches in mud and then having to get someone with a winch to haul you out and pay £40ish for the privilege.....I will ask again where is the fun???? :y

Indeed. Far more comfortable thing to get stuck in mud with.

Obviously, if you don't want to get stuck, a proper 4x4 is needed.

The moral of the story is that when driving around a lake, don't be tempted to take a short cut across a dried up bit, even if there are wheelmarks.  ::)  5 hours of digging before we gave up and got towed out by a 'passing' Grader!  ;D
