    Given CCTV evidence and witness accounts establishing that the accused wilfully set fire causing total loss and spread to other vehicles, the offence is serious; mitigating factors (early plea, claimed health/family circumstances) were insufficient or unsupported by evidence; guilty plea does not automatically warrant a reduced sentence; mandatory custodial sentence appropriate — six years imprisonment from date of arrest is justified and imposed.
