Someone with a decent camera passing by just as it happens then?

Not often a Photographer stops, gets a camera out, sets it up and takes a picture within 30 seconds of nut cases setting someones pride a joy on fire.

Unless they knew it was going to happen obviously.....

A mate of mine is a professional photographer and he carries a camera with him at all times. He can take better spontaneous pictures than most people could if they had hours to prepare.

Who's to say it is real? I watched a film called Terminator 2 once and someone told me that there were special effects used in the making of it
I wasnt having any of it until I was out having a drink with a T2000 at the local cyberdyne systems social club and he told he how they had done it...

Heartbreaking to see good machinery destroyed.

I have to say one thing about either the authenticity or the speed the image has been caught at.

The fire looks VERY new, no paint melting or burning, and the fire on the outside of the car, a bit soon for anything to start burning and falling outside the car, which would suggest that an accelerant is still burning after being poured on and in the car, and outside.

So to me, thats either a nice bit of photochopping, or just ignited.

Far from a photoshop

Here are the rest of the pics Suburban Living - a photoset on Flickr

It turns out the photographer lived very close to where the car was dumped and saw it happen from his front door

Totally agree with Snazy, the plastics on the car haven't even started melting , so i think the photographer has seen a lot more than he is letting on and should have pics of the ******* doing this.

I also take it that the thieves managed to get the keys or car jacked the vehicle as i am under the impresssion the newer cars wont start because of the immobiliser and coded keys ,can anyone verify this?
