AN Alfa Romeo burst into flames in the carpark of a shopping centre in Birmingham.
The mall was evacuated as smoke and fire billowed from the smashed windows of the sports car.
At one point in the footage, a loud bang could be heard echoing through the car park as the flames intensified.
Another car was destroyed by the fire, which was allegedly caused by a faulty engine from a petrol-powered motor.
Emergency crews raced to the fourth floor of the Selfridges Moor Street car park, closing the building for an hour.
Two fire engines from West Midlands Fire Service arrived at the scene at around 10.30am.
