A manhunt has been launched for firebugs who torched a pricey car in the driveway of a Scots home.

Fire crews raced to the scene and battled the blaze, which was quickly put out with no injuries.

"We are currently reviewing CCTV and carrying out door to door enquiries in an effort to establish who was responsible. If anyone was driving in the area and may have captured footage on dash-cam that could help with our enquiries, please get in touch.
