Random! Spark plug? Why u say that?


Spark plugs are weighted at one end (metal end) and once thrown at glass the weighted end usualy swings foward with the trannsfer of weight in the metal shifting to the front, this coming into contact with the glass and sending shock through the toughned glass (that is on all cars ofcourse)

Thus breaking into a thousand small cubes and covering your lovley seats in such mess.

How do i know this i hear you ask? No i dont steal cars, i used to work for a double glazing firm a few years ago and we dealt with a company called "pilkington" which are a french company and make lots of Vehicle glass for all types of European cars due to the Safety Standards that BSA make for safety regulations.

This coupled with the fact that i used to f**k about breaking scrap glass and yes threw a spark plug at a sealed glass unit and wa-la, one broken unit of glass.

This all ofcourse is just theorising, could have been a Half brick lol

yep. Some toerags normally have a bit of string going down the inside of there leg with the white bit of a spark plug attached to it.. This is to break into cars quickly.

ps put up his plate.. you can then get his address and cleverly f**k his car up..

I am a respectable person to , but if he done that to me with me daughter in the back of the car, i would have him drinking through a straw for a few weeks.

I thought it was actually the ceramic used on spark plug that break the windows?

Like this video, he doesnt use the entire plug, just a bit of it.

Yep, just a small bit of the ceramic will pop a window. You don't need the whole thing for most glass.

I don't understand why you wouldn't formally report this?

It's all well and good saying "the police won't do anything", but if everyone thinks like that then the Police will have nothing to act on. It's criminal damage, as well as being f**king dangerous, surely report it to at least make his life a hassle with getting pulled in and questioned. If he's doing it a lot and a few people report it, then they'll have more to go on.

iv reported it to ma mate whos a cop,hel deal with it
 
  BMW E46 330i Touring
Ah okay mate, fair enough. I thought you meant that you hadn't reported it, but had told your cop mate who'd 'sort it' ;)

I'd still recommend making it formal though, creating a paper trail is alwayd advisable.

Gutted for you mate, hopefully you'll be able to sue him for criminal damage. Will you insurance not cover your side window under the windscreen thing or would a side window be a loss of NCB? the only thing good about directline is they're vandalism policy.

This same guy tried to catch up with me one night on the M8 when i was in the 182. Was in the mood for some spirited driving so he never got anywhere near me.

But i see him and the silver corsa with the off centre viper stripe in town when i'm in. Personally i'd be tracking him down and getting revenge
