It's possible it was an electrical problem which started the fire. Direction of wind blowing, where the fire starts and the strength of the fault are all factors. Don't think the fool tank went up as that normally burns the whole lot. Looks like the bonnet took a lot of heat so I assume the engine area is burnt out. Burnt more inside so could be electrical dash fault.

Jewish arson...

Member of our Belgian Freelander Forum had the same thing couple of months ago.
His wife parked the car at work and after 1,5h it started burning.
Was also electrical problem but damage was too severe to tell the exact cause.

If it was electrical why would it burn the front and back but seemingly not the middle???

I think it's arson

Someone has used petrol on that. The interior is too good for it to have burned front to back!!

Lol arson.

teddywood1 · May 11, 2013

not enough water in the boot to stop it from burning ,but being honest what a shame someone's pride and joy it does seem a funny burn pattern fire brigade will find out

looks like it burnt from under neath like petrol tank holed and set alight.

Nodge68 · May 11, 2013

Defo arson. It had petrol thrown over the back of the bonnet and over the tailgate. Looks like someone jumped on the bonnet too as it's to creased at the front edge to be heat damage. When you get an engine fire the front bumper is the first thing to melt as the heat can't get out any other way, but the bumper is fine, also the wing is melted and the door is burnt where a burning liquid would flow.
