A disgruntled former Mercedes-Benz worker has been arrested after he went on a £5 million wrecking spree with a stolen JCB at a Spanish factory he used to work at.
The 38-year-old allegedly destroyed around 50 brand-new vans with the stolen JCB that he drove 18 miles to the factory on an industrial estate in the Basque capital Vitoria, northern Spain.
JCB is a British heavy equipment manufacturer. JCB is the British generic term for a rubber tire backhoe. However, according to the photos the machine in question is neither a jcb or a backhoe but a Cat loader
Ha ha! True, my daughter in law who is English doesn't vacuum, she hoovers! When I was a kid in Scotland, I helped out an uncle of mine on his farm, he had a grinder brand name was Bosch. He didn't say to grind something, it was gie it a guid boschin!
Okay, I give up. What's a "JCB".

DeleteBackhoe, excavator, pretty much any digging/earthmoving machinery is a JCB in the UK.
