  • Yeah, a real pity.. ...

    Yeah, a real pity...there are thousands of crap tin boxes(mk1 mondeos, meganes, peugeot 306's for example) out there which deserve this treatment, but as we know, if it's British it's in for a slating at the BBC, even if it's 30 odd years old...why? Because the BBC is run by self loathing wankers.

    or, as the other door had seemingly been held on with string, maybe it was string here again, or something? ( or maybe it was a couple of bolts, and the water loosened them?)

    Shame to ruin 3 decent cars. The Princess looks like it's been looked after quite well, and with only 400 left it seems like a bit of a waste.
    I wonder what the previous owners would have thought if they saw this?

  • I don't think the ...

    I don't think the door falling off was staged. If the car had been partially restored, the door may have been held on by only a couple of bolts. When you think about it, that's a lot of water. The water may have also caused the entire car to flex, further weakening the door's connection with the car.

    Should've used a Volkswagen Beetle (an old one), they can float without modifications!

  • Strange test for ...

    Strange test for panel fit, it does not take into consideration that all cars are vented to atmosphere. To finish off with another staged door failure is cheesy too...scrabbling for ratings eh? Still bloody funny at times, love it!

    That's true.

    But you may be abled to seal off the ECU, move it or vent it to the outside.

    Other electronics won't fair well.

    You could`nt fill the inside of a modern car with water and drive it round a track, what with ecu mounted under the seats in some cases.
