Two men were lucky to escape without injury after the vehicle they took for a test drive caught fire.
The men pulled over at a truck bay along South Western Highway and jumped out of the Land Rover four-wheel-drive after noticing flames coming out from under the dash.
The fire brigade were called to extinguish the burning vehicle.
Bunbury Fire Station officer Paul Smoker said the fire was caused by an electrical fault under the dash.
Both parties' insurance companies will be conducting investigations.

Both parties insurance companies? It looks and reads as a single car incident. How can there possibly be two insurance companies involved?

Car dealer insurance looking at claiming against the test drivers I suppose.

Do you carry personal insurance for those matters? My CARS are insured, I am not. I can't see that the person who was test driving the vehicle would have any personal insurance cover at all.
