How Well Built are Mercedes' Cars? This Thief Got the Answer


Have you ever wondered how well built German cars are? And you were the kinds who was always looking for proof. Well, here it is! A thief suffered some serious injuries after the brick he threw at a Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe rebounded and hit him in the face.
This happened in Ireland at the Pheasant pub in Drogheda, Co Louth where the local CCTV camera captured this car thief trying to get inside an E-Class Coupe. You can see the thief trying his best to smash one of the car's windows.
He starts with a small stone, graduating to a brick but things do not go according to plan. The brick rebounds off the glass of the coupe and hits him in the face knocking him down. Thanks to this CCTV footage he was caught by the police.
Two lessons learnt here then, one being karma and the other being that Mercedes does make cars that are sturdy and to an extent; damage proof.
