Post by: Crazycarzowner on 30 October 2013, 17:50:30: Saw a Corsa a bit similar to that on Monday night, the owner had tried to drive though about 2 ft of flood water & got stuck in the middle under a bridge. ::) ::) ::)

Called us out as she didn't know how to get out without getting very wet :-\ and wanted me to tow her out??? Ended up climbing out through the window and wading through the water. :D By the time the recovery truck turned up it was flooded up to the seats ::)

Post by: 05omegav6 on 03 November 2013, 14:33:46: Should have bought 550s instead ::) or better still ordered another 1000 V70 T6s, that way Volvo might still make them :'(

How many DPF failures does it cost to offset the diesel fuel saving?
