That poor BMW, what a sad view.

I guess that the car it totalled?

Btw, from the looks of the exhaust it seems to (have been) a V8 or a 535d.

The front in aluminium seems less proof to fire than the steel body

Didn't like looking at those pictures at all. Very painful.

For all those experts out there, what can cause a new car to burn like that apart from cigarettes.
