Sad I know, but its a first world problem!
Something the way that article is written makes it hard to give sympathy. Just sad to see. I wonder how long to get the smell out of the cars!

Ah. A friend of mine was saying his Dad's Aston was caught in the floods, so I was wondering if it was the same car. The article says 2, his must have been the other one! (I think it was actually a DB7, not a DB9). Pic here:

An Aston Martin that's been caught in a flood wouldn't be any less reliable than an Aston Martin that hadn't.

I wondered for years why someone would bother to fit an ejector seat to an Aston Martin - now I know!! :-)
