I would have to agree with you there. There are many burnt out wrecks =
in remote areas of Australia - the worst ones were the Mitsubishi Pajero =
(my apologies to the Spanish speakers, complain to Mitsubishi) the =
Matador in other places. They had/have so many shields underneath that =
the grass gets caught underneath and "whoof" up they go - just the thing =
to spoil your day, particularly when it's hundreds of Km to the next =
village and the HF radio was mounted in the car.
Land Rovers are not immune to it either, particularly the Disco's.
Cheers
Diana

No, almost certainly wouldn't have been that (but I haven't seen the =
film).
The bigger hole would simply have enabled more grass, etc. to get behind =
the grill. Only effective way of stopping the build up of grass on the =
radiator is a very fine mesh - which you need to clear periodically.
On this note, another big problem is dry grass being caught under the =
car at the exhaust. Enough of it, dry enough and you have no car!
