a lucky escape for me from an under bonnet fire as i traded my car in at a dealer for my golf r (still waiting). I phoned the dealer up few days ago only to find out that the gti had cought fire under the bonnet whilst sitting in the forecourt, he did not know much about this but he did say that it was an electrical fault that trigerd this dont know the state of the car now but he did say it was scrap, allso there is another gti in the local recovery depo that has had the same problem and there is only rear tailgate left thats un touched, thought this may be helpful to you guys just in case you get cought out, or get it cheked at your next service id hate to have it go up in my garage at home
