Smile Vw Gti Catching Fire

A V-Dub catching fire w/ music background....kinda makes you wonder why the owner would just watch his car burn to nothing!!!

Looked like a pretty nice little car - I think I would have been trying to do something else besides taking a video of it burning - och!

Having had an engine bay fire before (old jeep CJ-5), I can tell you that sometimes you want it to burn.

If the car is giving you trouble, any damage caused by fire will be picked up by insurance.

My engine bay fire was caused by an oil line that came loose and was spraying all over the place. The vehicle was such a hunk of junk that I was really hoping it'd blow up.
