Visuals: A large green highway sign at the Wolvercote roundabout in North Oxford points towards Summertown, Headington, the City Centre, and Peartree Park & Ride. A modified white Mazda RX8 sports car with a rear spoiler is safely loaded and secured on the flatbed of an Isuzu recovery truck. The side of the truck is clearly branded "Oxford Breakdown Recovery" with the dispatch number 0786 328 1324.

Transcript: "Hi, welcome to Oxford Breakdown Recovery. We recovered this Mazda from the Wolvercote roundabout on the Woodstock Road in North Oxford. We safely winched and loaded this broken-down Mazda RX8 onto our tilt-and-slide flatbed. Using a flatbed ensures the sports car's low clearance and bodywork are completely protected during transport.
