Fire crews from Tipton and West Bromwich were called out around five times last night between 11pm and 4am to deal with fires which were being started sporadically.
A Ford Mondeo in Cordley Street, a Peugeot 206 and Mercedes Benz van in Hays Street, a Nissan Sunny in Victoria Street and a convertible Suzuki Vitara in Irvan Avenue were all hit.
Burned-out shells only remained today.
Part of a house was also damaged after fire hit a caravan, forcing 75-year-old owner Hilda Paxon to move.
