Dramatic pictures of the scorched BMW show the wreck abandoned outside the entrance to the IMO car wash.
Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus tackled the bonnet fire ball as concerned shoppers looked on.
Paper towels have been placed around the burnt out vehicle by Asda staff to soak up diesel.
The car wash is now back open and serving customers as normal.
This comes after we reported two major road closures due to crashes this morning.
A horror smash on the A14 has left one dead and shut down the dual-carriageway.
Emergency services were called to the A14 eastbound at Horningsea, Cambridge, at 9.25pm last night after the multi-vehicle smash.
One person in a car has tragically died, while three others in the same vehicle were seriously injured.
Cambridgeshire Police have arrested the driver of a lorry, a 38-year-old man.
He was detained on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and causing serious injury by dangerous driving.
He remains in custody.
The road has been shut down for more than 12 hours and remains closed this morning between J34 and J35.
Elsewhere, a major road near a scenic tourist hotspot has been shut in both directions after an early-morning crash.
Drivers have been warned there could be severe delays and urged to plan ahead.
Embankment road, between the A379 at Bowcombe Creek Bridge and Sandy Lane, has been closed off, with investigation work ongoing.
The beauty spot is just outside South Devon National Landscape and near Kingsbridge.
