Why not put a boot on the boot, bonnet would look a little odd?!

Friend with an Estate or a car with a roof rack (bribe with beer!!)

Tell the AA it fell off, and can they recover it for you

Of course, if you live near the sea like me, you could always bung a sail on it, and windsurf it round!!

If you don't need to move it too far...
Put some old pillows/cushions, even an old duvet on the roof with the bonnet on top, then simply tie the whole lot tight with a rope through the cabin.
You can actually buy inflatable cushions a little like a LiLo for the purpose.
A better way to lash it down, would be to make up some brackets and get some small bolts to fit the sockets intended for a roof rack. The sockets are hidden just behind the rubber door surround around the top edge.
