It's a sight to make the heart sink of any car owner – probably our second biggest purchase ever going up in flames, leaving a sad and smoking derelict shell of what was once a pride and joy.
South Wales Police's Roads Policing Unit took this shot of the aftermath of a vehicle fire in the dark early hours of Sunday morning, just as their colleagues from South Wales Fire Service had finished extinguishing the flames. The incident happened on the A465 dual carriageway between Aberdulais and Neath.
The road was shut for around an hour while emergency services dealt with the incident.
