Heavy rains in Jakarta, Indonesia have produced the worst flooding in the city since 2007, which according to <em>Reuters</em> has left an estimated 18,000 people displaced from their homes in addition to six deaths, leaving the roadways covered covered in feet of water.<br /><br />One of the many cars claimed by the rising waters was this <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/rolls-royce/ghost/">Rolls-Royce Ghost</a> that is surrounded by water that almost fully covers the massive wheels. There is no word as to how much water got inside this Ghost, but it was obviously enough that it could be bailed out by the bucket.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/01/20/rolls-royce-ghost-meets-its-muddy-maker-in-jakarta-flood/">Rolls-Royce Ghost meets its muddy maker in Jakarta flood</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Sun, 20 Jan 2013 12:01:00 EST.
