In a statement, the fire service said: “On arrival, crews found one vehicle well alight.
“With one firefighter wearing breathing apparatus, crews used one high pressure hose reel and a thermal imaging camera to check for hotspots.
“The cause of the incident is thought to have been deliberate ignition.”
