You found a car that was burned up and buried in your garden? That sounds kind of odd. You would think it would have been easier to have it towed away than to bury it. How long have you lived there? Did you ask the previous owner? Stolen maybe?

Did you get one of the C3 planters mentioned in this thread?

If you suspect it is a C3, you can use this site to decode many of the details:

The trim tag, too, which is stainless and likely intact in the driver's door opening:
