biggrim 0 Posted June 9, 2004 Is it just me, or would that be REALLY bad for the car? Sand and water getting places that it shouldn't? Or am I once more jibbering a lot of poo? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted June 9, 2004 perfectly correct young man!.............for once no 747's either :D :D .......would reckon tho at the end of the feature that the motors would have been given a quite comprehensive body wash so there should'nt be too much if any damage done Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 10, 2004 A mid 80s car would have started rotting almost instantly, but certainly the 911 and the Bimmer can take that in it's stride. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted June 10, 2004 I was meaning sand and water getting into the air intakes and into the engine and causing problems, but I suppose the bodywork would take quite a bit of abuse too. Just a thought I had (just the one thought mind, lets not get carried away :wink: ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
