I remember a Jag on ebay with the roof cut off

The bloke in the Jag had stopped at an accident to help out, got one of the walking wounded and sat them in his car to keep them warm etc. When emergency services turned up the victim complained of neck/back pain so the fire brigade cut the roof off the Jag to get him out!!
