Fire up the engine has taken on a whole different meaning in India after three drivers reported that blazes started spontaneously in their Nanos, the world's cheapest car.

Tata Motors, maker of the Nano, which costs about £1,300, today ruled out a recall of the little runabout despite the fires, which started in the steering column.

The manufacturer of the car said a short circuit in the combination switch that controls the Nano’s headlights, windscreen wipers and indicators was thought to be responsible for the incidents, which have left Nano owners furious.

Sunil Kumar Panwanda, the owner of a Nano that caught fire in Delhi, said that his daughter parked the car outside his home on Tuesday afternoon. Three hours later it was in flames.

There are parts of this country where if someone (especially an Indian or anyone else from that part of the world) parked outside a house their car would end up inflames too.
