    You are a trooper!
    You would benefit from a couple of plywood sheets. Use them to slide cars, build bridges or spreading the load when using a jack.
    In this case it’s probably easiest to build a sled. Jack up the car with beams and slide in the sled. Then pull the sled with your trailer winch from far away.

    If you are going to be buying vehicles in places like this. You really need to invest in some aggressive mud tires. Add a front hitch to your tow vehicle so you can use a winch on the front of the rig.

    I am sure it would be possible to change the direction of that stream a little bit withe the help of 30 sack of dirt at the right critical spots up the hill to dry this sucker out. However, on the other hand, that stream might as well be your rescue to get those cars out easier in the end. That cursed steam could be your blessing in the end.

    😱🙈 Sir, besides all the Murphy's law things that happened, you simply must've a lot of masochistic potential in you!? 😁 ;-) 2) I already said it and I still say that you need a Mustie1, his all wheel drive backhoe, his 4WD pickup truck and his fantastic trailer. Maybe even his neighbour VWnut can help? It's definitely much more than a one man plus lil' Kubota job. Better luck next time, you hardcore VW fan.
