It's ok though it wasn't the Cerb it was the Vauxhall. Bloody hell they don;t half go quick don't they, and that was a metal one god knows what a mess it would have been if it had been fibreglass.

Jesus Graham don't do that to me.
Tell you what, you don't half feel helpless just standing there watching the flames waiting for the fire brigade to come. It actually melted the bonnet, flames about 10 feet in the air.

That has sealed it, I will stick indecent size fire extinguisher in the cars.
Exactly what I was thinking whilst I was standing there.

Still look on the bright side, at least you could keep warn waiting for the fire brigade to turn up.

We've got one at work - hateful car. Wish ours would catch fire.
Other like it but the visibility on it, especially to the rear is poor (even when short srse me has the seat jacked right up), the the brakes have failed twice, both times failed seals on the brake cylinders. Not fun finding out on the motorway you have no brakes, electronic hand brake you can't use...
You are right about the visabilityto the rear, also the A pillar is to big and turnibg your head to look in the blind spot is also not good.
