i am going to f*cking kill someone
« on: 05 March 2009, 11:32:47 »







someone set my car on fire this morning
I got a phone call from a nieghbour saying my car was on fire
I ran out with a little fire extingusher and put it out

after the fire brigade checked it out and disconnected the battery  they conformed it had been set alight
someone has pushed something down the scuttle

all the shit that falls under the scuttle has not been scorched and other than the horn there is not much in the way of wiring at this point in the car

also its not went through the bulkhead and was very localised  fire
the interior is undamaged  and the fire brigade says it could be fixed  although there is paint damage.

needless to say i am upset but trying to keep myself busy till i calm down
cars are replaceable  and i accept that stuff like this can happen however to set fore to a car at 8.45am when you know im about to get in it with my kids to take them to school is shocking and thats what i am angry about.
i have an argument over parking spaced with a nieghbour  at the weekend  which got quite heated  .......

I am sorry to hear that mate, what a pathetic and stupid thing to do.  Have you called the police yet?  Tell them about your dispute with the neighbour it may yield results.  Also ask around maybe someone saw something.

Its a common place for the early Omega's to catch fire, is it a mini facelift?

Bugga, when you have calmed down \i would suggest involving the police, you say the firemen have said it was started on purpose, and if there was an argument with a neighber then its for the police to decide.

Gutted for you :'( :'( :'(

But... Before you point the finger of blame somewhere I think you should be careful.

Power sounders have been known to "spontaneously combust" and that is the exact location of your fire :-/ :-/ :-/ I'll have a hunt and see if I can find a thread on it.

Just playing Devil's Advocate here so please don't shoot the messenger :y :y

Here you go... Just a few occurrences from a quick search

And the Google search results

So just a friendly warning to be careful if pointing the finger of blame... You'll need to get positive proof of accelerant use as cause of fire.[/edit]

Sorry to hear the Doog, that is bad news although it could obviously have been worse :'( :'(

Is there any obvious party who could be responsible. i.e someone with a grudge? :-? :o :o

Yep, my money is on power sounder too.

It's fed by a puny wire that's fused at 80 amps. When the batteries leak over the board, as mine had, they short the driver circuit for the horn, and the transformer burns out. If you're lucky that's as far as it goes but I can imagine a scenario where it develops further.

If you have a power sounder that doesn't work, pull it out.

Must confess this thread has got me thinking... I knew I'd read about it but it was one of those "It wont happen to me" scenarios... I'm thinking it may be time to rip mine out ::) ::) ::)
