Alloy , bonnet, wings, door skin and rear end, all intact,seems the fire started in the cab, maybe something to do with the gear in the boot rather than a car fault. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

Overheating brakes due to the fact that the car was towing a trailer loaded with a mini digger?

If one looks up the specs on these baby diggers one will be shocked at just how heavy they are. Welded up out of say 10mm, 16mm & 20mm steel plate, not a tin can as a car is. Plus they were probably moving it with maybe 2 or 3 buckets which are heavy as well.

& don't forget the weight of trailer as well. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!
