Same idea here ...
Although I wonder how stressed the alloy rims may have gotten in the prang ??

We had 1 car go down on snow trip... But it was a Pootrol so it doesn't count

Sheet...
Its the one thing we all know is possible but hope to never see it happen or experience it for ourselves.
I hope the occupants are ok and the car isn't too banged up even though it's a datsun...2003 V6 GXL, Mickey Thompson MTZ's, Safari Snorkel, ARB Winch Bar, OME Suspension 2" lift, GME TX3420Comment

Originally posted by Damien ParkerHad the same idea a month or so ago. I have phoned most of the 4wd and commercial wreckers south of the river (Perth) and they all laugh at me when I ask for 120 series wheels. They say they almost never get them. Several said the prados just get passenger side rear dents (inferring shopping centre blind spots with mum drivers...) :roll: . The rare one they get is always a roll over and the wheels are bent.Originally posted by ChippyComment

Fraser Island - a bad day for Mum's brand new Prado
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi All,
I just had to share these priceless piccies with you all. My brother and his mates came across this just after coming back over from Indian Head.
These guys had decided to wash Mum's brand new car in the lovely, flowing, freshwater creek. Trouble was, the car tightened up the channel and the sand was washed away from underneath in no time at all.
This is when it suddenly got serious. The motor was still running and of course, its a turbo... Well, it stopped running shortly after and then they faced the ignominy of having to break the back window because the central locking kicked in 30 seconds after the motor stopped. Poor buggers.
Well, my bro' and friends eventually managed to yank them out and give them a tow back. His mum was 'never going to know'. I wonder how much that cost?

Yikes Rob
Sure sounds like it turned ugly and expensive really quick.
