Hi List,

El Nino, global warming and the Pacific is taking its toll on the road to my house. It dips down as it passes an estuary and for the second time in the past couple of weeks it had something over a foot of water on it for about 150m or so. To date I've chickened out testing the vanagon through the floods but I'm sorely tempted. The alternative adds about 20 min travel time (at least there is an alternative). 

So what can a vanagon safely get through? Mine's is an '84 standard watercooled westie generally loaded with kids, babies and shopping.

Cheers,

Steve
