      I park my company car next to my neighbours Garage, he’s a dick, but one day fingers crossed

      An „electric car“. What bloody use is that as information? Why not state the model and year?

      Cars catch fire all the time so apart from localised damage, and no one being injured or dying, what is the news here?

      Car fire happens everyday, but if is an EV then suddenly is news worthy 🙄

      This article doesn’t have it but I’m sure I read elsewhere that this was a G-Whiz using lead acid batteries that was plugged into a mains socket for like 15 hours which is where the fire started, having something suck high current from a mains socket for that length of time is bad juju.

      NOW, NOW ! i think that we should all be Eager to know what the insurance company is going to Decide on this incident given their recent guidelines on Elect /Scooters / Bikes that have combusted in apartments,elevators, etc?

      I think electric cars should be banned as they are a danger and a waste of money to buy

      I still have no idea why news articles think we need to know the value of the house. Would it make any difference to the cars flames if the house was £250,000 or £5,000,000 ?

      You’d think electric cars would be less prone to exploding than petrol powered cars assuming both are built correctly 

      I understand why batteries can explode but on the face of it it does seem ironic that electric ones seem more likely to just explode on you than one with a literal tank of explosive gas

      How unlike those vehicles whose fuel is the notorious difficult to ignite petrol or diesel…

      Does anyone remember the LPG panic over a handful of explosions across Europe a few decades ago?

      There’s been more EV spontaneously combusting in one year than there were LPG incidents total.

      Are we gonna start banning EVs from tunnels, ferries and underground car parks too?

      ICE cars catch fire more than EV’s, but when EV’s do catch fire they are a lot more dangerous.

      That’s nuffink.

      A Land Rover destroyed 1,400 cars at the Liverpool Echo Arena.

      A diesel Range Rover Sport destroyed 1,352 cars at Luton Airport.

      A diesel Zafira destroyed 400 cars at Stravager airport.

      Sure you can chuck a match in a bucket of diesel and it’ll put the match out.

      But warm up that diesel to about the temperature of a very hot cup of tea and try that trick again.

      Be warned though, you might need a new pair of eyebrows.
