Or maybe, “he came in without shit and they gave him a knife”. I know people who would describe it exactly like that.
Suppose you own a Range Rover, a vehicle with an image of ultimate, unstoppable capability. Surely you would give a friend a very short tow?
Watch the video in the article.
The video is extremely frustrating. It shows the RR getting into position, then smash cuts to it being thoroughly stuck. We don’t get to see how it got stuck.
Having said that, I know how it got stuck really. I have a fair bit of experience of sand driving and have seen too many numpties get stuck in this way. There is a lot of technique to it - most of which I lack. But what I do know is “floor the accelerator and spin the wheels till you have dug yourself down to the axles” ain’t it.
She said: ‘Some local people did go down and give them some advice to try and use the jet skis to get it out the sand, but they were quite rude to him and gave him the impression that they knew what they were doing and told them to leave them alone.
‘They had the jet skis attached to the van to begin with, which definitely didn’t help with the towing. It was absolutely stupid.
Good luck with those insurance claims.
