I'm afraid they have to die to get a nomination. I'm assuming that was a stolen car. If not, there's no way their insurance will pay out for that.

That is REALLY weird for a number of reasons, its the same car as me (pug 406) the driver is same age as me, I literally live beside a canal with forest on each side and thats the sort of thing id like to try (maybe) perhaps its my evil twin in the news article

I'm sure it would have been fun had the car been a tad lighter and they had done it when it was still -10...

I hope they are sentenced to Community Service clearing the canal, starting with the pug. It certainly makes a change from supermarket trolleys.

We don't do cheap - we're the Apple of the car world. We'll leave the cheap doo-doo to the frogs.
