Paling St resident Darren Exon said the eruption was so loud he thought a bomb had gone off.
He sent in a series of photos of the fire to The Courier.
"I heard a few people screaming then I heard the car explode," he said.
"The whole car was engulfed in flames, no one was in the car . It was like they poured fuel on it and then lit it."
