This is the dramatic moment a car erupted into flames at Gatwick Airport this afternoon (Sun).
Video footage captures the car smoking as it waits at an exit barrier - before it quickly catches fire and becomes engulfed in flames.
Explosions can be heard as the tyres burst - and the car soon becomes completely destroyed.
A witness to the incident said the car - which appears to be a dark-coloured Volkswagen - pulled up to the exit barrier in Car Park 6 and "started smoking".
The driver of a nearby AA van jumped out with a fire extinguisher and tried to tend to the incident, the onlooker said - but nothing could stop the smoke.
Flames began rising up out of the bonnet and the car soon "erupted" into a fire, the man said.
Firefighters arrived on scene quickly and the blaze has since been put out.
West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service was contacted for comment.
