Stupid Romanian C....

Thank you, you idiot!

Driving round the north circular, stopped at some lights and some "breast" decides he wants to clean my window. Cue some choice words at him and flicked the wipers to get him to stop (which he did), now i have got some fine scratches right in my line of sight. When i use the windscreen wash, you are not noticeable, until the water dries.

Is there anything i can use to remove these light scratches (ala buff the beggars out?)

Cheers

could try some autoglym glass polish? Failing that i don't know

I find that sitting there, staring at them, whilst shaking my head side to side in a very exaggerated manner whilst mouthing "NO" seems to stop them from coming over.

Not that it'll help this time, but maybe in future.

As above - try some glass polish on it.

I find that driving off without paying works wonders.

adjust one washer jet to spray where anyone trying to wash the screen would be, they try, you hit the washers, and they get a free shower, bonza

Agh! They've moved in by me in Ealing, I also presumed they are Romanian, but my interaction, as stated above, is just exagerated head-shaking mouthing NO and possibly running them over/killing their family back in Romania.

Incidentally, does anybody take their car to those manual car wash place where several illegals wash it? I would never dream of letting anyone but me or some overpaid 'detailer' touch my thing!

That reminds me about a pretty extraordinary case that I witnessed during my holiday in Bulgaria this summer. There was some gypsy kid(about 16-17 maybe) that offered this "service" to some guys,stopped at the traffic lights, and they seemed to tell him to **** off but he kept on cleaning their front glass. At some point though(and I dont know how that happened), there was a crack that appeared on the front window which got those guys nuts.They went out and started beating him up which is why the thing caught the attention of everybody around.To be honest,I havent seen harsher beating before...but that wasnt the weird part.After finishing beating him,they just put him in the trunk(he was definitely still alive) and took off.Everyone at the place seemed to be like "wtf!".

I suspect that the glass must have been slightly cracked before in order for that to happen.

my parents brand new car was written off by a Romanian on sunday,

he was reading a map and swerved into their lane and they had to ditch the car at 60mph just missing a tree!

i am going to send him home in pain...
