My first thought was there was no track/road on the other side but it probably floated over to that side.

Perhaps the owner used to drive a classic Beetle and thought Discovery's would float too! Rolling Eyes

Judging by the angle in the water, a rear-mounted forum sticker would be just about the only thing that's salvageable from that!!!

If as it appears the tailgate was the "escape hatch" how did he / she get it open from inside?

Or was that a rescue my stuff from the boot action?

Suspect it wasn't the driver that did it (during the escape anyway), but wouldn't the key fob allow you to open the boot?

Don't know, as I have a poor person D3, in that you'd have to push the dash button and the tailgate together and same with key fob if set that way in button 3, has the 4 key a specific boot button live our Golf?

Even so, still to switch off and remove from ignition etc Confused

Mine has a specific boot button and the D4 has keyless start so the key never leaves my pocket. All this said, whether I'd think of plipping the boot with the button during the panic of trying to leave the car is another matter Sad
