Cyclone Phet

You wouldn't think we had a cyclone 24hrs earlier...

Until you see the debris:

The the remaining flooding:

And one nutter wanting to see what a RRS can do...

and a few more pics....

An over adventurous J**p driver, now with written off scrap:

The storm and the aftermath:

Once upon a time there was a MacDonalds...

...and a main road which is now a river...

... and a Mitsushitzi Pajero and whatever the car is with the white roof in the distance...

Not sure I'd agreed with that... as a result of my excursion through the water the following now needs to be resolved at the dealer:

1. Air Suspension defective, Orange Warning Light, Compressor not actuating/ working.
2. Driver’s electric window not working.
3. Front Offside Wheel arch trim needs securing/ replacing
4. Headlights have condensation on the inside need to be dried out.
5. Spot & Fog lights have condensation on the inside need to be dried out.
6. Check Engine/ cam belts as there is a ‘grinding noise.’
7. Check steering and front suspension due to ‘grinding noise’ whilst cornering at low speeds.
8. Front tow bar cover needs to be replaced.

Hmmm this could et expensive.... 2006 RRS S/C CONSTANTLY under modification...

Angel,

All except Item 7. Here I've had a bit of grinding/ rubbing on the hubs on slow corners.... otherwise yeah. The front recovery point cover popped off due to water pressure. The front wheel arch trim seems to have broke under the water pressure at its mounting point as it now rubs on the tyres, which it didn't before.

EAS, drivers window and all lights were fine before hand.... let's see what the damage is and wangle it on the insurance as flood damage 2006 RRS S/C CONSTANTLY under modification...
