if this had been in the USA, there would have been 5 fire trucks at least - 25 firemen would then stand around watching while the Captain walked around assessing the scene, 20 minutes later after 10 hoses had been layed out they might think about charging one of them and then start fighting the fire in the already written off car. They would then take to the bonnet with a power saw to gain access. Where as here, single truck arrives, 21 seconds later water on the fire from a High Pressure Delivery - Good Job Guys! Now that is how it should be done!
This looks like the same problem as my wifes Range Rover Evoque which recently started a fire while parked at Edinburgh airport and the fire destroyed a further four cars with it. The Evoque started the fire after being parked for 2 days suggesting an electrical problem was the cause. Staff at the airport saw the fire starting under the bonnet of the Evoque, a similar pattern to that seen in similar incidents with JLR vehicles. The fire risk recall doesn't seem to have sorted the problem with the Evoque "firelighter".
Why don't you ever watch it carefully ? at 2:30 a BA wearer gets out the cab and takes over the hosereel. The first attack was made from upwind in clean air. Perfectly safe, a strong wind taking the fire gasses away.
This was our car ,the irony is ,it had just been in for a recall and this happened on the way home, 6months old car gone !
