It's on the radio that a passerby helped someone and his car roof was subsequently cut off to avoid moving the injured person. Anyone knowledge?

I've seen it somewhere. A Jag- driver stops at accident, lets accident victim sit inside, victim complains of neck/back pain = Jag cabriolet.

It happens to police cars quite often , usually when someone has been arrested following a crash or scuffle.

They complain of back pain knowing the fire brigade will be called to cut the roof off , and they enjoy doing it to a perfectly good police car.

The Jaguar was on Ebay

I guess the advert is long gone now, but I found a copy of the text from it (their CAPITALS sorry - not mine)....

"JAGUAR X TYPE 2.O D - DAMAGED SALVAGE

THIS VEHICLE HAS COME TO US VIA AN INSURANCE COMPANY, IT HAS TRAVELLED 32,000 MILES AND IS ONE NOT VERY HAPPY OWNER FROM NEW.

THE VEHICLE IS REGISTERED AS A CAT C AND REGISTRATION DOCUMENT NEEDS TO BE APPLIED FOR.

THIS VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED BY THE FIRE BRIGADE (MUST TELL THE STORY)

THIS VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING ALONG AND IN FRONT OF HIM THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT, HE PULLED OVER TO THE HARD SHOULDER TO ASSIST THE INJURED PERSON FROM THEIR CAR AND PLACED THE PERSON ONTO THE BACK SEAT OF HIS FOR COMFORT WHILST EMERGENCY SERVICES ARRIVED.

ONCE AMBULANCE AND FIRE BRIGADE ARRIVED ON SCENE, THE INJURED PARTY SUDDENLY COMPLAINED OF BACK INJURYS, SO THE FIRE BRIGADE KINDLY REMOVED THE ROOF OF THE INNOCENT BYSTANDERS CAR (I BET HE WON'T EVER STOP TO HELP AGAIN).

ANYWAY VEHICLE NOW HAS A REMOVABLE ROOF, SEATS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AND ARE IN BITS, BOOT LID HAS BEEN PRICED OPEN AS OWNER HAD PERSONAL BELONGINGS INSIDE.

ALL DOORS ARE PRESENT, BUT SOME HAVE DAMAGE, NO CARE HAS BEEN TAKEN IN REMOVING THEM, DOOR HINGES HAVE BEEN CUT.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT THIS VEHICLE STARTS AND DRIVES, BUT IS NOT DRIVE AWAY.

TOP SECTION OF DASHBOARD HAS SMALL MARKS AND TEARS FROM THE GLASS.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THE ROOF HAS BEEN REMOVED BY FIRE BRIGADE SHEERS, AND THEIR IS OBVIOUSLY WIRING THAT NEEDS REAIRING, LOTS OF BITS AND PIECES, PLEASE TRY AND VIEW VEHICLE AS TO BE SURE WHAT YOU ARE BIDDING ON."
