Looks like it’s getting dark. You suddenly realise why people have lights on the roof when you're go under water at night! D3 HSE MY05 Auto

naaa.. We had no idea where we were or how deep the river was. My buddy slowly went in first with his 07 dico3, then a nissan patrol got excited and took the challenge but sadly ruined his turbo and got a replacement the next day. I waited for them to cross and then fallowed  I will admit it was pretty scary specially at one point while I was crossing the river that I noticed the front tires had no grip at all ultill they finally hit the bottom of that deeper part of the river... it was like a sinking boat except i needed for it to sink so I could get better traction.
Yes, it was getting dark... made everything just more scary and exciting as well
Not a drop of water ever came inside.

And here's me thinking that the D3 would, at least, be able to "dog paddle".
Nice pics, and welcome,
