Only thing that worries me about convertibles is that some pikies might knife the hood when it's up.

Unless it's a folding hard top roof...

You're joking aren't you. Mine has been down every day for the last week, we had a few days of rain before then but it was down for weeks before that. There's more than enough opportunity to use one in the UK.

It doesn't have to be really hot and sunny just to have the roof down, if there is no sun but is still warm I'd still have it down.

Yeah its not as elegant as the coupe, and doesn't drive as well. Its not without compromise, but I can live with those two things.

Its not even about posing, its fresh air, you can hear everything around you, its like going for a walk but you don't have to expend as much effort.
