........was driving down the M1 yesterday just before J6 when i heard a rattle from the engine, a few minutes later bang......and bits of engine was flying across the road, i thought at first it was steam escaping from the bonnet but soon realised it wasnt! Dialled fire brigade and 5 mins later there was 2 fire engines , ambulance , police cars and motoway patrols.. ..they closed the M1 for a few minutes while the fire was put out........................

Holy smokes... it's ruined the paintwork mate
You ok?

[BigKev]

Holy sh!t mate............. I think I'm gonna have to explain again about a 'burn up'


So long as no-one was hurt, its just nuts and bolts and insurance forms.

Hope you soon get it sorted

[Tony G]

is that what you call a hot hatch !!!!

i hope you are ok ?

[BaZa®]

Bloody hell Tim!

I've been to a few of them in my time.

You're ok that's all that matters.

[Tim]

.......thanks, i was never in any danger, just concerned the fire brigade would arrive in time to save my boots and a jacket that were in the boot...........

[Bilbo]

It could be a fuse, but don't forget to check the tyre pressures.

[Woodlander]

All that matters is that you are ok.

Suspect you will need a visit to Halfrauds to polish that out. Might need a bit of t-cut.
