Disaster area
Yes, it's the PV. On way back from weekend trip stopped to fill up and as soon as i had come to a halt smoke started streaming out from under the bonnet. Still haven't figured out exactly haw and why it happened. Luckily there were extinguishers at hand and the fire was soon under control. It looked horrific at the time and i was visualization a write off.Close examination after I got home it would seem as if i got off lightly. I will need to lift out engine and strip the engine bay, and have that re painted, also the bonnet. new battery and air filters, re wire etc. Could have been a lot worse. It could have happened on the road miles from any where. I'M STILL ALIVE!
Post pictures tomorrow
