Ive never seen a battery explode with such force, usually they just fracture the case..... Perhaps it was an electrical fire and the damage was done by the fire brigade as they removed the battery?

Thanks guys, its my car. Just really really shocked that someone managed to get a pic up on here. Can anyone shed any light on who posted the pic or where? any links to the original?
ANd yes its going to be a **** xmas. The insurance have written it off, wont give me the value of the car, no hire car, while i find a new one/wait for my payout, and my premium goes up due to my claim even though it wasnt my fault. Im on the lookout for any whispers as to who did this as that is rpob the only thing that will make me feel better. All my familys xmas pressies were in the car, my beloved ipod, brand new £500 sony stereo and its all ruined. PLEASE if anyone hears anything email me, pm me, anything. I really need this to help sort this mess out.

Hi mate - really sorry about your loss and hope that they find who did it so at least some justice may be enforced.
I spotted the photo on the OCUK Car Forums - here's a link to the thread..
Overclockers UK Forums - Poor Scooby
If you would prefer I can ask the mods on that forum to lock / remove the thread and I'm sure the guys on here would do the same..alternatively I can ask on there if anyone has any info to let you know..
Cheers
Pete
