Thats no good! Where's the film of it being taken out? You can't just post half of it light that! It's like telling a joke without the punch line!

There's some on Youtube - showing the lid coming off and the car being lifted out - can't see any more yet though....

Wot the hell did they expect? They put a car in a hole in the ground that let the water in .... and left it for 50 years.... dumbasses .....

If it was properly tanked a tiny leak from the top would have easily filled it over 50 years.

More to the point, why did they bury the tranquillisers?

Oh c'mon guys. I reckon they took sensible precautions. At least the engine will be OK as its had some tin foil placed over the top!!!!!

Have they never heard of pond liner??? or tanking???? Maybe if they had covered it in waxoyl it would have been OK.
It wont take Boyd long to get it sorted, i wonder if he will put billet 20" alloys on it
