Useful if anyone lights up a ciggy in your car. Some might say that's over kill I say its ensuring the same mistake doesn't happen twice.

If you don't smoke and someone lights a cig in your car without asking, they deserve to be hit with the fire extinguisher, never mind it being turned on in their face! I smoke and I smoke in my car, but I would never dream of lighting up in someone elses car! We have two extinguishers, but then I've had a car go up in smoke before. Little XR2 I was doing up, friend of mine bodged the wiring for the fan as the switch was buggered. We'd just bought a manual switch for it and all the proper wiring and as we drove home, the speaker wire (I know!) he'd used to bodge the fan on melted and sent the whole thing up in flames. Mate of mine lost his show car to flames too, as he put the wrong fuse in for the heater.

If everything seems fine, you've probably not grasped the gravity of the situation.
