Petrol tanks only explode in films.
And a cigarette won't light petrol either.

There is quite a steep road in this town near me and a few years ago a car set light and the handbrake cable snapped and ended up torching two other cars and melting front doors and window frames of two houses.

You thought the same as I would have - "Look a car's on fire - let's get a pic and put it on Corsa Sport"

It reminded me of the RS4 and Evo guy as well
