Don't think the spikes are long enough, and anyway, if the plods got the wrong car and damaged the wheels as well as the tyres, it is just more cost for the plods replacing them too!If it happened to me I'd be worried the stinger took a bite or two outta me alloys

Wired me big garage doors to me castle alarm terday. Worra faff. Eye needed ter use a moving fing to allow the cable to travel from the wall to the door, un allow the door to open. Remembered eye gorra lenf of air con drain pipe from wuk and some 0.5mm cable from wuk anorl, ferrit.
Two lenf's of me cable would only just fit down the pipe but kept gerrin stuck. Took about 2 hours messin ter gerrit down. The guide cable wun't pullit frew. Would push int but not go the last foot onna 6 foot lenf. Unclipped it from me door and wall. Bit betterer but still gerrin stuck.
Int end eye sqwertid some watta down me pipe. Made it a bit betterer but still difficult ter get cable down. Din't want ter put oil down it. Int end eye C clamped one end of me pipe ter me roof girder un pushed cable int tother end and pilled ont pipe. Then let go and done same again. Gorrit frew int end. Eye used 0.5mm cable assist be stronger ter protect against movement. Fink normal alarm cable would snap over time.
Just need ter connect me garage under ground cable ter the alarm cable int me castle. Then connect me alarm cable tother end to me aram. It's been sat waiting ferra while. Then it be done.

If it is so hot I can't actually taste which meat is involved I am not into it either!

Yip. I wanted another car to keep the miles off the Tratter and thought I might as well have fun wivvit too. A mate had picked up an MX5 with front end damage and had sorted it out but couldn't sell it because of the write off. I got it cheap.
Not @kevstar kinda cheap, but still cheap

Dry but cold 'ere. 'They' say that we might get a glimpse of the golden stuff later in the day but I'll believe that when I see it.
The wee one's out, the big un's been out for a quick piddle but hastily returned to resume his slumbers. Yes, I'm back in mi pit wi me cuppa too cold for me to poke me nose out yet.
I continue to prepare my tin tent for its first outing and am getting quite fed up doing it now. Fortunately it only has to be done once!
Enjoy your special Monday folks.

Morning All
A very different day here. Cold, wintry and overcast.
Luckily my main tasks today are to work out how much insulation board and internal plywood & plasterboard I need to order tomorrow.
My paid helper (Thomas) returns on Wednesday.
Have a good restful day today everyone.

mmm strange one..
The only reason I can think of is that if the spikes off the stinger on the rears didnt penetrate
the tyres but were still stuck into the tread, when he drove off they pierced through. ??
Im wondering if all his tyres were runflats. If the 2 fronts were totally flat (normal radials)
& the rears were runflats.
Where's the pics & dash cam footage lol
