Powder extinguishers are only really for specific locations now days due to the reasons described above. They are nasty nasty things and will probably be phased out in a couple of years.
My advice with having an extinguisher in the car is don't bother unless you are sure you know how to use it. Far too often they give people a sense of over confidence and before you know it you're putting yourself in danger. You need to know when to give up and just walk away.
I would go for AFFF. Don't bother with water or powder. Co2 in reality whilst affective won't be as good as a foam can.
Also something that most people don't do. Get it serviced!
