A black Ford Focus is partly destroyed after flames engulfed the car's bonnet.

Firefighters were called to a small car park in Manor Road, Folkestone, near the town centre, at 12.41pm today.

Using a hose reel jet, it took them just under 15 minutes to put it out.

A Kent Fire and Rescue spokesman said: "The car was 50% destroyed by the fire."

The cause is not yet known.
