A bit off topic but I remember an episode of 'The Real Hustle' with that woman... they were in Spain or somewhere like that and as part of the con they sprayed a load of the stuff on some chap's nice alloy wheels and wheel arches.

I remember seeing that, took them to a garage that was closed.

Don't think it was vanderlism, they found a couple in Spain who were British and sprayed brake fluid on arches and wheels to make it seem like they had a leak...

They then sent them to a garage they "knew" which was conveniently across the road
