Scooby in a lake!

No pond! It was just a little planty bit. We've only recently moved in and hadn't done anything in the garden.
When I put the car away in the garage on Sunday night, I wiped down all the wheels because they had muddy water from the puddles. What a waste of time!
Still, it's not in the house (was VERY close last night) and we're all okay....even of the gf couldn't get home last night

If I'd been at home I would have moved it or whatever.
By the time I was home it was too late to do anything.
Good News: Starts and sounds well. Some water in silencer but was quickly and forcefully ejected!
Bad News: Inches deep standing water in rear footwell.
Any advice on what to do/likely damage. Kept bailing out but it kept pooling. Going to try and get a wet-vac type machine.

Sorry to hear about the car, but it sounds like you may have just got away with it.
I think you need to find out the nature of any pollution that was in the water. If there is sewage then you will almost certainly have to do a bit of extra work to sort things.
I am no mechanic, but I think there are various sorts of breather pipes/seals and stuff that the water could have got into. Would probably be best to take it somewhere for the once over to get their opinion on any work that may need to be done (eg changing oil in diffs etc).

Had bit of good luck today..
Bloke in the Units across from ours happened to have a valeter coming today...(valet man also has a scooby)
Got it wet-vacced - still a little wet but clean. I'll borrow a wetvac and have another go later. Or maybe even buy a cheap one as above (cheers)
Bloody boiling on the way home though with the windows shut and hot air blasting out!
