What an amazing pic - The cars look like toys at first!

If it's what I think it is then it's reasonably cheap.
I think you've had a coil pack burn out, it may mean having to replace another one too as they seem to go in pairs as for some reason a failing one stresses another.
I wouldn't drive it though.

Thats what i was thinking, it happened on my 1st Gti one week into ownership.
Did the car sound like it was misfiring ( like a suburu flat four ! ).
Hopefully a week out of warrenty the dealer should do a goodwill act.
hope its nothing major fella.
not sure about the fluid leak though !? ?
vRStu:
Happened to one of the guys with an Octy RS, luckily he was running an EVOMS without the engine cover at the time and used the Fire Extinguisher he also carried to put the 'flames' out.
