Hello folks! Not sure if you have heard of the terrible, major flash floods in the Murcia Region - or even if it has been covered in the UK. It has been awful. People drowned, as their cars got washed away.
The good news, is that I managed to get my wifes Land Rover, the ML and the S-Class, out of our underground garage - literally with minutes to spare. Less than 10 minutes after I got them out, the water was waist deep.
Others were not so lucky, and about 24 cars were lost. Included in the lost ones, were 2 lovely Mercs, whose owners didn't leave their keys with anyone, so they could be moved. All the pictures of the floods are on my website - www.ltora.com
I have posted pictures of the Mercs on here.
The white one had been totally submerged under about 3 metres of water, the blue SL, under 2 metres. The water was muddy fresh water.
Question: Are they write-offs?
The sad thing is, their owners only found out today - as the garages have just been pumped out.
