II love topless motoring!

Fook off. What makes you think the rest of us want to see your man-boobs?

No it's not...It's your hair piece flapping in the wind and the spice girls blaring out the stereo

That's what I am planning to do. Is it not cool any more?

i agree with a few of the other posts. If you want it go for it. I don't have one but borrowed accountants 3.2 quattto audi a4 softtop to pick him after he'd left it near me after drinking. The noise was phenominal and certainly makes you smile. You do see people looking at you as if to say "lookat that tw@t with the top down" it's just jealousy that their corsa can't get above 50mph!

No it's not... I really do think "look at that tw@t with the top down". Jealousy doesn't come into it, pity maybe?

I picked up a pre reg 09 3 series convertible which was fully loaded and I mean fully loaded. Only had 150 miles on the clock. It was 10k less than the official BMW retail price.

I love it, its great and you can drive it any weather. TBH there's only been a few days when I havent been able to get the top down.

I love topless motoring!

I got overtaken by a silver one on Sunday.

We'd been pootling along following some numpties doing 70 for ages. When they got out of the way I put my foot down and the open-top Merc behind me kept pace until I could pull over into a gap to let him pass. I was doing 95 when they went past; a couple in their 50s or 60s with grins like a couple of teenagers.

Whether I'd give up the air conditioning and being able to hear the CD for flies in my hair ... I don't know.

Yep. Sorry about that Richard.

If I could get my hubby's car out of the garage - I would go for a classic MG Roadster

Had a drive of my sister's new Merc. CLK Cabriolet the other day.

I'm not much of a petrol head, but this car was really fun.

Having the top down on a fine sunny day, out in the country, brilliant.

A bugger to reverse, not much power uphill, but good fun, and looks great.

An ex-gf had a 2CV. Roll the roof back, open up the dash vents, and you had a great fresh air car. It was surprisingly good fun to drive.

You could do Rommel impressions as well.

A friend of mine had one of them. With the roof open the aerodynamics ensured that every passing insect would hit you in the face.

Oh, and the entire back seat came out so you could use it for picnics.

The 240ZX was a nice looking car!!!
