Shame I didn't get a video of a Vectra I saw not too long back.. So sadly text will have to do (As well as a video, but not of him..)
Basically.. There's this bridge in Warrington.. when it rains heavily.. It gets super flooded, So me and a mate went there one night to get some pics in the water for reflection.. Never seen ANYONE go through it before.. Anyway..
Pulled up, reversed to tire height into the water, got out, 4x4 comes tanking along, so move the car and it goes through..
Reverse back in, another one comes from the other bloody side!! So in amazement, we move the car and just sit and watch.. Another 4x4 comes along followed by a Vectra..
4x4 goes through sideways (obviously barely touching the floor!), so Vectra naturally assumes that he can get through! Gets about half way through and the car starts floating/smoking.. Only makes it out of the other side through momentum and the engine cuts out.. 10 mins or so later the engine starts again, albeit misfiring, rough as a bears arse etc with another cloud of smoke.. All in all.. An EPIC FAIL
Massive post I know, but so damn funny!!!
One more!!

back on topic tho...im surprised the owner of that gold wheeled bezza spent money on a decent mod....smoothing the rubstrips..thats a very uncommon mod! expensive too..
i can remember ages ago when it rained really heavily around where i live...everywhere was flooded! can remember aqua planing down the motorway doing 25mph coz of all the water!
came off at the junction i needed and one of the roundabouts was completly underwater. cars where making it through and managed to get through myself (this was back in the day when i had my old saxo...may of been my bodykit that allowed me to get thru..pushing the water out the way!) but after i had gone through the other side of the road was littered with abotu 4 or 5 cars that had conked out from all the water!! lol
carried onto where i was going, went into the car park and the far side of the car park is on a slide (deepest part being inside the car park where all the cars park) as i went in and round the corner to where this part of the car park was, ther was a brand new vectra with all its doors open driving down the car park, when he suddenly slammed on his brakes and obscene amounts of water can flooding out of his car!! did have a little chuckle to myself...did feel bad for the guy though!
anyway, drove on further into the car park and there was a car parked where the dip is at its deepest and the blokes car was about 3 ft under water at deepest...water completely covering the rear wheel. took a picture of it on my mobile, will have to have a look if ive still got it as there was no way in hell this bloke was getting his car out until the water had gone!!
also seen a 306 try and get through a massive puddle before...got about 1/2 way through when the engine gave up on him!! couldnt help but laugh as he tried the slow approach then thought sod it, reversed back and then gave it hell going towards this puddle..i saw puddle, it was more like a lake!! and still didnt make it through!! some 4 x 4 came trundling passed him whilst he was still sitting there aswell!! me and my mates couldnt help but have a good laugh. was one of them laughs where your stomach hurts so much and you feel so much better afterwards
this is what i would like to do to mine

gold wheels! 
yeah budd...i think most of us on here want them removed but the time and effort involved it usually works out best to get them coded...
