A crew from Bridgwater Fire Station was sent just after 5am and found the car on fire.
Two fire fighters wearing breathing apparatus used a hose reel with them to extinguish the fire.
Fifty per cent of the car was destroyed by fire and the police have been informed as this is believed deliberate ignition.
