You can bet this sale fell through. Fire destroyed a used VW van yesterday afternoon when the vehicle was taken out for a test drive. No one was hurt, but the van was destroyed. Fire officials had not determined the cause, but said the blaze broke out underneath the van. CP" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We all know what caused the fire! Change your fuel lines NOW! Malcolm S |
