Hand brake slipped and the car went into the drink.
The lad took it well.

I would have cried a little.

No Good
I see it many many times at StLeonards Ramp
Back Boat/Trailer up leave engine running and hand brake on
There isn't a good hand brake on any 4 WD in Aussie they are all sus.
I stop my donk and put hand brake on and select 1st gear

Lol...poor Azza, He's long got over that episode, was over a year ago now. We came in on Terry's boat that night, I couldn't work out what the light in the water was...pretty funny when we realized.

Probably would be able to get it running again , but the problem is the rust and short out electricals
