Peugeot 406 Submarine

The 7-seater has a release on the inside of the back door.

i have just bought a D9 estate 7 seater yesterday (pics up soon) and the ariel is at the front and judging by the sun's photos it has a shorter ariel so i think its a D9 we will just have to wait until they fish it out!

If memory serves, the front aerial is the same part d8/d9. They only changed it when they moved to a stubby amplified aerial at the rear some time in the D9's production. If his is shorter than it should be, it's probably an aftermarket jobbie - the aerial threads can snap off quite easily at this age

Come to think of it, I've ever seen a black D8...

Hmmmmmm

I wonder if they escaped through the back door - that would make it a 7 seater

Niiiice! The front end would have gone through the water first and unless they got out pronto, the doors wouldn't have been openable

I wonder if it said 'RISK OF ICE' unlike mine it still saying 16'c outside

Mine would defo have said 'ANTIPOLLUTION FAULT', just like most other days.

You couldn't make it up, could you?

ive always noticed the ariels to be different my blue D9 rapier has the stubby standard black ariel as does the red estate but ive seen a lot of D8s with a really long ariel they may well be aftermarket but i think they are the same as the phase 2 306's but hey who cares as long as they can pick up capital fm im happy! im still waiting for pics of when they raise the car i dont know how long itll take them to get around to it though

I suspect the recovery operation won't be as newsworthy, so we're unlikely to get wind of it. If the unfortunate owner happens to read this thread, I somehow doubt he/she will volunteer anything further.

Maybe if we have any local sleuths keeping their eyes peeled....(Anyone who gets a pic of that deserves an OC award).

true but someones bound to get a snap of it coming up! i just did a quick check on the number plate and its come back as an LX HDi 110 estate it doesnt say if its a family though...more research i think...

Wot? No ICE ALERT ?

[steve_earwig]

Depends how cold it was, below zero mine doesn't say anything (maybe whoever programmed it though it would be obvious by the passing polar bears ), how about BLUDDY THIN ICE ALERT YOU STUPID MONEYS?

[Doggy]

Mine does the ICE ALERT and flashing temp. readout from +3 down to -3, so if the temperature rises form -4 to -3 it's Bong! - ICE ALERT time, which is stupid.

(But not enough to distract you into driving down an EFFING CANAL)!

Prat-Nav maybe?

[Welly]

'Kitt' from Knight Rider wouldn't have had this problem.....

Michael, the ice ahead is too thin, I'll engage my super ice blaster to thicken it.

Thanks Kit, you're a real Pal.

[tricky76]

perhaps they diving to avoid Rozzers

[steve_earwig]

But the road tax doesn't run out 'til next month Maybe there's a toll road near there...

@Welly: More like "fancy a Turkish bath Michael? Ooh, stroke my gearshift, I need you buddy..."
