F31 convertible

Remember the iconic BMW Z1 with no roof or doors?

Here's the F31 version.

It was a 19 plate 320i.

(And no one was injured.)

No, because they've got undeclared black grilles.

What happened ? Looks the offside B pillar is completely missing, and that the A and C pillars are clean-cut. Vehicle rolled and crushed the roof against the doors, meaning that occupants had to be cut out ?

That's a truly sad sight to see

Driver pulled out across two lanes of traffic and was t-boned on the offside. Spun around and ended up there.

Driver had to be cut out because of complaining of neck pain but after checks in hospital they had no injuries.

Mine was very nearly like that when my wife had back pain following her shunt, fire brigade extracted her via the boot on a spine board. They got as close as pulling the pillar trims off!

Driver had to be cut out because of complaining of neck pain just to make sure they got a new car but after checks in hospital they had no injuries, mysteriously
