An eyewitness, who phoned the fire brigade, told News Shopper: “The car exploded twice, but it didn't take the fire brigade long to put it out though.

“Both the driver and passenger were standing near by as you can see in the picture. A bit too close I think although they jumped back when they heard the first bang.”

The London Fire Brigade confirmed a fire engine attended the blaze and said there were no reported injuries.
