Is it a bottom feeder, i.e. intake at the bottom? If not, I can't see why it stopped; could have reversed out again when it was clear it was going to be too deep?

I remember commuting up London in the late 90's and round Bermondsey/southwark there used to be a db5 that was used every single day for commuting even in winter. Even back then I thought the bloke was mad
