Stranded car retrieved from mud

[Lukeno52]

Why didn't the tow the car by the bumper? Because it's already missing at the back, and the front one is totally submerged perhaps? Shame for an 18 month (at most) year old Fiesta (at the time) to be wrecked like this though.

[warren6815]

Engine will be buggered, seats ruined, body panels will rust like no tomorrow, ECU's will be fried... One way trip to the scrapyard.

[mrspivvy]

Yep. total write-off once its been submerged

[ToyotaofDothanIT]

Wow.. What animals.. So because the car may have been totaled.. They make sure to ruin what parts were NOT damaged.

[PseudoSarcasm]

@rastafagzbo Serious?

[cangomaster]

@rastafagzbo Ummmmmm...... You??

[JimTLonW6]

i remember people getting caught on Brean beach in the 1960's. Must be something in the air!

I wonder who had to pay for that recovery job? Anyway I'm sure the owners enjoyed going home on the Train!

[SupahEXPE00]

you could have just brought your tools and your car , and take the spark plugs off , and then crank it up and see if it the water comes out from the engine , and put the spark plugs back , crank it up and see if it starts

[misterman2112]

08 reg car aswell, was quite new at the time,,,such a waste :(

[blackcat89]

write off ?

[robmk3]

That is a proper recovery truck!

[fixinggrace]

And I thought the potholes in Michigan were bad.

[donlarry1]

si ese auto uviera estado en mi pais lo rescatan y no le ubieran quebrado niun vidrio

[dalailamos525]

Hah,they could waste a hour to take out the windows,but no ''that's not my car''.

[Stig472]

@DerAdventurer the reason they didnt pull it out by the bumper is because if you look at the beginning of the video the bumper wasnt there

[Stapurple]

the driver of that car is a idiot.that person shouldnt even be allowed to ride a skateboard much less a car.

[Contractor240]

Once a car has been 'wet' as in under water in the sea, it is a write off. ALL the electrics need replacing [remember salt...] plus the interior plus the engine if it was running when it got stuck and wet.....

[ruairi50]

if these towies had brains they would be dangerous could have sold it as a rolling shell for rallying etc

[boobmasteris]

turn off the gear!!

[alzym1]

they fucked da car ,dumbs

[locouk]

Unbeleiveable, I've just run the reg number through Askmid and these are the results:

MJ08DSY is on the Motor Insurance Database today

The car would need a new body, new upholstery, serious work on the engine and electrics.. It should be a write off!

[danieladamko]

idiot fucks, theyre ruining the car, gives it more damage that the mud

[Teeebs]

DUMBEST towing company ever. Could have done that without breaking ANY windows.....with the right equipment.....

[harley101010101]

fucking dumb ass towing it there now u gota problly put it on the frame machine and pull it back into place... wait thats rite its totaled cus it a piece of shit ford!

[camdencarsllc]

Why the hell did they brake the windows and run the chain like that........

[no1sailor]

what dipshit drives a fiesta into the sea? Duuuuuuh!

[chesthair1rs]

PEOPLE ARE SUCH IDIOTS SOMETIMES I THINK IM THE ONLY ONE WHO LOOKS AFTER HIS CAR

[Areoplane7]

stupid morons.

1) there is a tow bar in the back of fiesta for towing, no need to ruind back windows, roof and tailgate.

2) WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY PUTTING IT ON A TRUCK LIKE THAT?!

3) they didnt take it out of a gear when they were pulling it out.

i cant believe that owner allowed this. idiots

[JakiLLamb]

Mi piacerebbe fare due chiacchiere con il proprietario della fiestina.......

[MrTheDOMESTOS]

Лобовое надо было разбить!!!

[HawkmanRally]

Why not just open the side windows instead..... IQ=0

[punkyboy2]

awww that car was alright aswell:P

[bird2m]

Could only be a rental car.

lol

The fiesta looks better than some of the cars returned to EC Edinburgh after T in the Park 2007.

[AvonSearider54]

'It wasn't a writeoff'.... Bull. Once it's been submerged in sea water, it's totally useless. Empty the engine and it'll be full of sand and bits, and will seize solid within 24 hours.

[Joshua5654]

just a good set of windows gon threw window 

[fordcrossie]

wtf just use the recvery hook wtf is this stupid shit

[paul25601]

awful recover, id ot towed it in my 4x4

[jokerdude49]

wat the hell..... more to the point how the hell did it end up there

[dawnhill1967]

it really filled up with water, halfway up the windscreen!

[dawnhill1967]

it was a rental car, totally washed out the day before ------------------------------­-->

in the related videos the the video (swimmers bid to save ford fiesta)

[HlGHDEFINITION]

poor little ford

[arteddie]

u need to be stupid to drive that distance away from the shore and i bet the insurance didn't pay out neither

[markuk40tftc]

i bet my bottom doller thats brean sands ?

[liverpool95x]

look at my videos i was on the beach on the saturday it happned i have covergae of the same car actually in the water

[masterkill28]

they forgot to smash the frond window........nice company imagine what they r doing in case of blow tire!

[DerAdventurer]

Why didn't they tow the car by bumper, saving the windows?

[dawnhill1967]

@DerAdventurer yes all fiestas like that have a recovery hook

[FragNoMore13]

muhaha, by bumper, rofl

[DerAdventurer]

@FragNoMore13 LOL whatever, you got what I meant.

[burton76]

@DerAdventurer cos whichever way the cars fooked. no point saving it after a soaking in sea water

[DerAdventurer]

@burton76 Well, there's a point...

[CedrikTheManiac00]

@DerAdventurer the car is no good any more, garbage, + i dont think the bumper would have survive

[DerAdventurer]

@CedrikTheManiac00 Yes, indeed. The car has been given total loss, I don't doubt it. But you know... it's sort of stupid to see how people treat things...

[CedrikTheManiac00]

@DerAdventurer true

[iMarkusful]

@DerAdventurer It would fly away, too heavy couse of water and sand.

[nineteen1972]

@DerAdventurer bumpers are made so the do not kill people when cars bump into them , theres a small "eye" bolt to tie down the car but this is not even strong enough the cars stuck fast in mud and sand ,this cars a insurance write off anyway if indeed there insurance covers them when they take the car on to the beach so its no good anymore any ways

[DerAdventurer]

@nineteen1972 Sure it wouldn't have use anymore due to water. However, it just looks bizarre to deal in such a rough way with the machine - if you know what I mean.

[1991Timmo]

@DerAdventurer do u c any rear bumper? i dont and besides, by the looks of it, its a write off, so who cares bout the windows?

[DerAdventurer]

@1991Timmo ||| 100 years later. Well, the car is gone already. End of story.

[SPAINARD66]

@DerAdventurer the cars headed to be scrapped. after this much sea water got in everything it will never ever work right again

[TheMrJojoee]

@DerAdventurer because thre are st*pid



[ShanesAutos]

@DerAdventurer car was fucked anyway not like it made any difference, bet you anything it ended up in the junkyard.

[DerAdventurer]

@ShanesAutos lol that's been 100 years ago. Indeed, it ended up in a junkyard it might have been recycled and probably - with an amount of luck - it became a steel part of a Jaguar, or a Mercedes Benz or even a Rolls Royce.

[TheVirusPK]

@DerAdventurer They still had to load it on that truck

[NorkiddExo]

@DerAdventurer Cause their probs cavemen lol

[bridgehou]

@DerAdventurer beacause the mud has hell of a suction and would probebly ripp off and its wrecked anyway
