    Part two of my 2nd time up at Rufford Ford, where my quest was to film an affordable rough Ford ford through Rufford ford! Whilst I could've have got any closer to exactly that, I also captured the unusual and extreme scenes that occurred during the latter part of the day.

    @vwestlife Před rokem +109

    The reason why the minivan has a side exhaust is because it was modified for wheelchair access. The wheelchair ramp takes up the space where the exhaust pipe would normally go, so they have to reroute it. And recently they dredged the stream to increase the flow, so fortunately for motorists, but unfortunately for spectators, the level of water in the ford is quite a bit lower now.

    I'd love to be the guy to explain to one of them just how catastrophic the damage actually is and that their car is actually now a write off lmao Engines very often tend to be a third to a half of the total value of the vehicle, but let's assume you manage to get a used engine cheap, the cost to install is not going to be cheap, I don't know how evil the mechanics in the UK are, but in my country, that's about a quarter of the value of the vehicle again in labor and small parts. Your entire electrical system is also fried and the entire thing has to be replaced, also not cheap, especially to install, probably about a quarter the value of the car again. At the end of almost buying a whole new car, you now have an engine swapped shitbox with rust INSIDE your unibody frame that will fail most roadworthiness inspections in about a year or two when the rust fully sets in.
    Flood cars are always the cheapest cars on the market, and should always be avoided like the plague. To think that not only did a guy flood his car on purpose, this is a literal attraction that is infamous for having killed hundreds of cars in just the last year, and these brainlets still go ahead and kill their own cars too, having just watched the person in front of them destroy their car. Truly amazing content, think about it, where else can you see such an obvious display of stupidity, where the idiot immediately gets what they deserve? Literally amazing.

    The Escort Mk VI knew the score, he didn't try starting it again after it cut out, which is the point where people really screw up the engine. He pushed to the kerb, took out the spark plugs, then turned it over so it blow the water out, then soaked up what was left as best the could with a finger in a rag down the spark plug hole. Then he started it, and dried it out with the engine heat. Once he got it home i suspect he drained the oil off and topped it up with new.

    Knew that Escort was gonna die straight away lol the air intake ducting is directly on the front grile, any water hits the front its being sucked up. Wouldn't dare go through with a stock air intake, on mine I moved the intake to a cone filter in the wiper scuttle. Stays dry that way until water is windscreen level lol and has brought intake temps down to just one degree above ambient. As for the push with a bumper not the first time i've seen that done to an Escort- I've done it twice! First time I had my alternator fail on my way home the once, as i pulled into my estate battery died, my dad was behind me asked him to run home and grab the spare charged battery, two mins later he comes back WITHOUT the battery and goes 'I've had an idea, i'm gonna push you with my bumper' LMAO! Second time was the battery died and I had it as a bump start
