RIP :'(

[cliokiz]

I don't think i need to say much as the pictures do most of the talking, but basically left my car with a flat battery to get some jump leads and this is what i came back to.

I can't explain with words what i'm feeling right now.. :cry: :cry: :cry:

I miss my baby already :(

Personally i think it's deliberate, but i guess it's possible it could have been anything. From the looks of things it went with a bang so i'm glad i wasn't in it or near it when it happened.

:(

[schakal]

is that a williams lump in there ???

[Clio-Girl]

any ideas what might have caused it yet?

[MAXIBOY]

hi mate. had this happen to me in a mini i was driving because of an electrical fault. lucky it was brand new and still under warranty.

feel for your loss mate you put a lot of work into this.

[Andyvalver]

:shock: Omg, thats bad. Was is deliberate or accidental? I feel bad for you mate :(

[1fast6]

Bayliss says: I know exactly how you feel...de ja vue



Gunner says: those pics are shocking, its gotta be deliberate ignition if your battery was flat! outrageous

[MAXIBOY]

but was it a flat battery or a short that made it look like a flat battery until the battery melted.
they have sniffers that will know if an accelerant was used.

[cliokiz]

I'm thinking someone tried to steal it, then realised that they couldn't, so thought, shit, fingerprints everywhere, then just set it on fire..

or something like that anyway

either way i'm seriously annoyed!

[MAXIBOY]

mate really feel for you. know the amount of work that you did. gutted for you. :(

[dan-hipgrave]

Absolutely gutted for you mate :(

Judging by the fact that the battery is still there (kinda) and most of the interior has long since gone id say the fire started inside (arson!).

[mon]

thats bad mate .. but i think some twat burned it out the wankers

[big hp]

Gutted mate.

Hope it all sorts itself out for you.

[MatrixGuy]

Bloody hell.

So sorry mate. Hope things get better for you :cry:

[valverJam]

crazy! hope they catch the mo fo's if some1 did do this!

[white16valver]

Gutting :(

Really sorry for you mate :(

That looks to me like it was "not accidental" as the interior looks much worse than the front - and I don't see how a battery going up would have done the interior before the front end as it's tucked away in the engine bay... :?

But who knows - hope they work out what it was (though perhaps better not to know? :? ) and that the insurance sorts you out ok and doesn't destroy your bank balance next year.

[Jamie.]

What an evil thing for someone to do.

Feel so sorry for you.

[MattyH16valver]

That nasty mate....feel for ya...looks asthoguh the car was coming on nicely before this....must have been diliberate...surely. Bit of T-Cut will sort it! :shock:

[willy3]

crying for you mate, loved that wee car, does look suspicious hope the waste of space meets a sticky end if it was deliberate..........

[Daz.]

:shock: :shock: :shock:

And :shock:

Sell that shell to Winston, If thats not rat I don't know what is.

[cliokiz]

:P Yeah i was thinking that.

I totally think he should have it, must be lighter than his by now!

And in response to a question above, yes it is a williams engine and gearbox in there with piper cams!

My toolkit was inside though (which is now melted to the floor) so i don't have the toolage to take anything out :roll:

[Zollo]

Erm.... at least the front bumper's ok?

[Bayliss]

Why do people do it? Just don't get the mentality of some people.

[samg19882]

spose you can kinda sell the wheels... they wont be that badly damaged by fire id imagine. and can be refurbed? and the fogs might still be ok.

sorry though

[rob16v]

no way man :(

that's ****in awful

[Taylor]

ill take the wheels lol, although potentially they could be screwed and brittle
