Stolen from seloc, may have been caused by driving with a mis-fire, that may have heated the cat up and set it alight.

Looks nasty!

That is a shocker, on your driveway too. Sort of sh*t that makes you and the Mrs never want another.

Had the option of letting mine go Krakatoa when the engine went, the oil had dumped on the manifold and sparked up. Instinct told me to get Sarah out but could not leave it and popped the boot and managed to get it out by wafting and a rag.

Reckon if I had to pay for chipping it off the asphalt I would not have replaced it.
