Luton Airport Car Park Fire

[GlennB]

It's not my source. You provided it, and claimed visual discrepencies where there are none visible.

Rings a bell. Vixen once posted a video of a burning car plunging through the car park floor at Luton, claiming iirc that it had 'melted' its way through.

I took a screen shot from that video which showed that, in fact, two floor slabs had collapsed. Vixen asked me to show that my source was trustworthy

It was not any longer a £130k+ car, as you tried to describe it, that's for sure, but nor is a 2014 car a pile of old junk. Try to get over the idea that if something is not at one extreme it must necessarily be the opposite extreme.

Cult thinking, albeit in this case a cult of one. That's the only way you can maintain the fiction that everyone else you meet who's outside the cult is wrong or lying.

It was another poster who claimed such a car was 'elderly'.

and you that introduced the term 'old banger'

Are you from the 60s?

Yes, if not from earlier. See the quotation here: Middlesex County Council was abolished in 1965.

A mid range 2014 Evoque costs circa £15k, to convert it to electric circa £20k. On top of that is VOSA testing, registration and crippling insurance. A 2020 Evoque hybrid costs circa £30k.
Why bother Vixen?
