Doesnt smoke at all!
Just had a report back from the fire brigade, the highest heat spot was jus behind the dash so we believe it was an electrical fault that caused the fire! Whoever had the car before had tv's in the car and we found 6 aerials in the car at one point! Maybe it was those!
Cars being taken away tomoro, so he can move on now and get something else, hes being paid out, thank god! Looking into a skoda fabia vrs!

this happened to me in my Saxo VTS woke up with my mum saying CHRIS there is smoke coming from under ur bunnet ran down stairs to see smoke beltching out took the fire brigade 15 mins to get there by that time the flames were 15ft high best of it was the cars insurance ran our 2 days b4 and i put it off the road as i was running about in my golf
ended up there was 5 cars done that night a rag over the front wheel and set on fire by the time it caught fire they were long gone
police said with a smile on his face "well ull never not insure ur car again will u son" felt like kicking him square in the balls
on another note you say it was maybe a electrical fault ... he didnt fit a sterio or amp did he just before the fire as i have seen this happen due to the amp wire being pushed throguh the bulk head and just nicking the plactic coating and a spark arcing on the bulkhead
anyway pure gutted for him just glad he had insurance
