So last night driving home Wigglet decided that we were to go no further together, he lost power, briefly splattered to life for 50m cut out again, 700m from my exit on the freeway, then i saw the flames coming out of side of the car, i thought "right, time to get out"
I called the fire brigade and Bron fro a lift home and the death of Wigglet took place for 3 lanes of block traffic, one fire engine, 2 police cars and 2 RTA tow trucks to see.
The fire starts
Firemen after pumping lots of water and foam
The remains of the engine
So here ends my beautiful car, 8 years of faithful service, from Easter 2000 in Balmain to a firey end on the Gore Hill freeway last night - How i will miss you Wigglet.

RIP, little Wiglet. I will remember you and your untidy dash with nothing but fondness.
Holy Crap! The long clutch finally rests.
May it join the great empty diet-coke bottle repository in the sky, RIP.
RIP Wigglet. We hardly knew thee
RIP poor wiglet!
Shall I cut a hole in the floor of your new car (whatever it may be) to make you feel more at home?
Ah wiggie, dust to dust, car to ashes.
New Car??? Oh can you move on so quickly. I think a 6 month carless morning period is in order.
Holy shit! That is indeed a spectacular end to the life of a car! That's the way to go I guess.
He went out in a blaze of...
