Fixed photos mate...





Gutted for you mate!!

 

beat you to it lee


that is a real shame i would be seriously gutted if it happened to me

 

Thats shit mate, insurance tend to right flooded cars straight off.

 

gutting

 

thats unlucky mate

 

shit mate,i did'nt know there was that much water.

 

shit sorry bud really feel for ya

 

Fuck.

 

i was thinking of getting my haircut so i may have a hairdryer going spare but seriously thats as bad as 4k,like Trist says they write them off for flood damage or is it just sea water because of the salt ?,saying that,it is a lot of water.looks like another one going to the grave and its not even bent.

 

They will both be ok wont they??? Take the trim out and clean it etc, the ecu on the saff and the other electrics would be ok

 

shame.

 

Will be fine mate, its fresh water (if its just rain not salt river burst)
my father in law does salvage for insurance companys and I am always gutted to see some of the cars he gets through water damage. dry them out, if its filled engine plugs out and turn it over then oil change, but still end of the road for them.. gutted, hope you sort it.

 

fookin hell man!

 

thanks for sorting photos out gents.im gutted i was breaking saff very soon as was rotten,engine is going in a 3dr but it would have been nice to give it one last blast before i broke it up.the leon i dont know wether will be ok as dash board was doing disco light with no keys in car .something for the insurance to sort out!!!!
cant claim for cossie as its more than 10 yrs old can only cover third party

 

Bloody unfortunate that Mark

Im over in Gibraltar at the moment, leaving today to come home, i know we've had a lot of rain over here but didnt think anywhere was flooded to that extent

The Rock hotel is having new carpets in the main restaurant area due to water damage at the moment, weve just had breakfast in the sun lounge

Is that just a local thing in Gibraltar about 3rd party only on 10yr+ old cars?

 

fookin ell mate unlucky.....I heard it was bad Saturday night, makes me glad I've got the motor in my sig now lol. Can't believe it hit so bad though, I know a lot of surrounding towns were under as well, Estacion San Roque for example - Monday morning the roads were a fookin mess lol

 

Gutted for you mate


Brian

 

gutted

yes mates it is a local thing in Gibraltar about 3rd party only on 10yr+ old cars?

 

well things aint as bad as seem the leon started today and ran ok.no flashing lights on dash board.havent drove it yet thouigh have to see when driving.stinks of shit though!!!! got 2 dehumidifers inside the car drying it out.
aint been to see cossie in me garage yet still a bit depressed about it

 

wounder mate, if you need a hand breaking it I'm happy to help would be good to meet ya

 

gutted for you

any car that has been sat in water that is deeper than the sills is only good for scrap imo u will never get it all out of the shell and the damage will have already started, plus i would think most of the electrics would be shot

 

yeh rich that wood be great .im gonna go to me garage tomorrow and get the interior out as it was leather to see if it can be saved.once i get garage sorted we can meet up.do you work in spain or gib?

 

Sad sight fella

 

The wiring is shot luckerly i took ecu out .even the ashtray was full of water .a real mess .water filtered out well though one of the reasons i was breaking up the car.

 

I work in Gib - Marina Bay. Are you llanito or moved over here?

Hope you get the interior saved, if you get to it quick fingers crossed it will be alright. I've got a garage in Guadacorte but only for a month or so now so not much help, although if you want to store stuff like interior you're welcome to do so until I move.

 

moved over eight yrs ago .work for goverment as an electrician.store space im ok for renting 2 garages in la linea one has 3dr iin at mo.plane is to break 4x4 and store remains in garage and work on 3dr in other garage.
you must know carl bisset whos the pier master over there in marina bay ?

 

Ah nice one, at least you're sorted for space then. Where did you get the 3dr from, UK also? Have you seen the black 3dr belongs to Diego, works at the Ford garage in La Linea iirc.
I work at Stan James not actually on the marina

 

rich did you used to own a rst in white a few yrs ago?
na i bought the 3dr (rhd) from a bloke in gib who was strapped for cash.the engine was f...... put a rod through the block and sump but the shell is solid.
yes i know diego top bloke and his brother and do you know kiko another black 3dr from la linea. as well a few more scattered about 2 in campermento 1 in los barios another 4 or 5 in gib.did you know there a escort cos for sale in gib top condition 57000 km completly standard apart from konis and magnex ex if your intrested(£8500)
