yeh i saw that at the southhampton boat show in england

i also watched the aquada go round wich is the same thing but just a car rather than a 4x4

and i'm not joking you it was FAST!!!!! like a bloody jet boat seriously fast considering it is a car as well

we tried to get our mates dad to buy one because he is loaded......

there not cheap though and i think at the time the aquada they were only going to make a limited amount........

it would of been a great car for my mates dad though as he had a villa in port grimaud in the south of france just less than a km from st tropiaz and they go there all the time to shop and eat so he could of just zoomed accross the water and drove straight uyp the boat ramp

bob's yeh uncle and fany's yeh aunt:eek:

Well picked, phoenix. There's something about amphibians which appeals to me. Seen lots of them. If you're interested have a look at <terrawind.com> and be completely amazed - a swimming winnebago!

Cheers, GQ

It just goes to show that there is nothing new in the world.:rolleyes:

It's just a more Hi-tech version of the WW2 Amphibious Jeep.:D

I'd have a humdinga tomorrow, given the boat and trailer launch and recover annoys the rest of my mob, and towing it around and parking is a drama. I'm all for it, so long as it works....and there are some other amphibs which are even more amazing....

cheers, GQ

We Landie owners spit on such stuff. A real LR owner would drive one of these Sea Rovers:

the aquada has a bit of land rover in it as it uses the 2.5 v6
