Hi Ian, I have seen this in Kenya when my nephews wanted to borrow my 4x4 so they could go on safari. Whilst on safari they drove it across a river to get to the other side. What a mess they made with the water entering the car and it went up to the level of the steering wheel. Amazingly the engine didn’t cut off, but after they got back the seats and carpets had to be removed and the car took ages to have its musty smell go away. I think they did it to test their off road driving abilities without using any common sense. I was so annoyed and vowed to never loan them a car ever again.
