Just keep an eye on the age of the extinguishers, both my cars have had them in for many years, might be time to replace them with new ones, before they are needed

I grabbed my fire extinguisher from the boot and opened the bonnet to see flames at the back of the engine. Thankfully a quick blast of dry powder and the fire was out. Very scary and I count my self very lucky that I could tackle the fire so promptly I could very easily have lost the 2+2. The reason for the fire, a fuel hose had come lose. The good news is that the fire did very little damage, and after fixing the hose, I was able to start the car and drive home.
