Okay then. answer this.

Why douse the car in petrol? Would the effect not have been the same if
the car was undoused?
Why not use something big like a van or a minibus?
Why was there more than one person in the vehicle? Surely the effect would
have been exactly the same if there was just a driver.

No, I'm sorry. This one just doesn't add up.

Most airports Ive been too have height restrictions on that only allow cars
to drop people off at the terminal, vans taxi's ect have to go elsewhere,
and for dousing petrol over the car well I would say that it would be more
of an accelerant, but we only have one witness sto say this so far that it
was doused, I think there are many people exagerating especailly the guy on
Sky news commenting they were shouting Allah al the time, but he could not
be 100%
