what kinda comment is that?

little extinguishers dont put out major fires, they contain them til help arrives, any large fire your car is in trouble regardless

Your car isnt always in trouble if theres a large fire. Mine survived every bush fire from the last 40 years.

But seriously, Little extinguishers put out little fires. And big fires are little fires that got of hand. So carry an extinguisher.

Bloody hot really...

Any mini being burnt is a tragedy but imagine it happening just before the centuries biggest mini celebration when the owner has probably spent months getting it ready .
