I love the last scene of it leaping off a bank into the river.

I bet if you could hear the sound, it would have coughed and spluttered and only just dragged its self out after that :lol: :lol:

Wonder if it's the one that DonMcDazzle on here has?
He doesn't have a build thread on here but over on oldschool.co.nz he does

doesn't show plate number thoguh but he might see this and comment :D

as for the jump into the water: I did a similar thing a couple of times last weekend in mine. has a dirty 202 which sucked in a fair bit of water. seems quite well waterproofed electrically, though :lol:
Surprised it didn't bend a conrod (that I know of)
