He said: '˜We were called at 12.28pm to a vehicle fire in the Halfords car park.

'˜It was a small electrical fire in the engine compartment '“ we weren't there for too long, only around 10 minutes or so, and it only took a couple of firefighters to put out the blaze.

'˜Sadly the vehicle was almost completely written off by the fire. It's a real shame, because it was a really nice modified car.'
