Buggers lifted my keys and filled the air vent scuttle with pot pourri.
Took bloody months to get the last bit out - but it did smell nice!

Remove luggage and fill the boot with balloons, but make sure he checks 
before driving off!

Guy I know had a Kipper wired onto the exhaust pipe. Really did stink.
He was finally told where the smell was coming from a couple of weeks later.

Could do nothing then act really suspicious about it.

If you can afford the expense, swap it for a knackered one in a scrappy.

Or hire them something suitably exotic.

What we did , was buy a load of cheap watches. The set alarms in them to go 
off at different imes. I am talkg 4 to 500 watches here.

Then hide them everywhere. Get a haynes manaula nd hide them in doors , 
inside seats , behind the dash, a good place is inside the boot lid. If the 
alrm goes off for a20 secs max , time hes got out the cra , opened boot , 
and started looking , he wont know where it is as the alarm has stopped.

It took 9 months for our victim to find the watches or batteries died.

Re: wedding car stitch up   
Had confetti push into the heater vent on my car ready for when we drove 
off.

But ....

My car had had a boot-bender a few days before so had swopped with father in 
law - who rolled up at the factory a few days later looking very pretty!

No harm done on that one either.

That's quite a good idea. I booby trapped a flatmate's room with really 
obvious tripwires and the like once, none of which did anything. It kept him 
occupied for about an hour trying to figure out the catch.

cling film it all over, an industrial sized roll should do the trick

What about taking a dump in the heater vent?
