Driver, 55, dubs his BMW ‘Christine’ like the killer car in the 1983 Stephen King movie after it rolls off his drive and crashes into his neighbour’s house before bursting into flames A driver has dubbed his car ‘Christine’ like the killer automobile created by Stephen King after the BMW started by itself and set his neighbour’s house on fire. George Day, 55, said his son Adam heard a loud bang and looked out of the window to see giant flames ‘as tall as the house’ erupting from the BMW 3 Series, which had crashed into the next-door home and set the kitchen ablaze.
