I've been looking at this for a while and it just doesn't 
ring true.  

A meteorite of any size would have a terrific velocity at 
impact and be somewhat warm.  I would have expected a very
neat hole in the windscreen and the rest of the vehicle, all
the way to the point that there was something solid enough
to stop it, like the ground or part of the 
engine/transmission.  Followed, possibly, by fire.....

It looks more to me like a piece of debris from an aeroplane
- sometimes this can be frozen bits of various types of
waste - could be a more likely candidate.  Or, maybe,
 someone in one of the flats around there became tired of
 the alarm going.
