Voted "Not bothered would rather have the window down" but would go further and say would rather have the roof down too.
I don't drive the car with the roof up unless the heavens open while I am out - which has happened and to be honest when that happens my main concern has been about the water pouring off my eyelashes into my lap.

Bought one just like this on saturday (pick up next week)I don't drive the car with the roof up unless the heavens open while I am out - which has happened and to be honest when that happens my main concern has been about the water pouring off my eyelashes into my lap.
I'm not 100% sure but I don't think they do a convertible version
Oh and the air con works on it too!!
For Fooooks Sake!!!!!!!
So, 2 weeks into the new car ownership and all was lovely and serene. Then a couple of days ago I noticed a funny vibration coming from somewhere in the middle of the dash that came and went with a press if the A/C on/off button.
Just had a mobile engineer out and fuk me sideways if the bastid funking cnunt of a drier isn't leaking from the bottom....
It's still blowing cold but it won't last. Fortunately(ish) a new condensor is only £200...getting it replaced later in the week.
have to laugh, you'd cry otherwise.

Mine hasn't worked since I bought my car in 2011. I do long journeys and the heat, especially in traffic jams like M25 ones are a nightmare. Also makes me feeling foooked and tired especially as it a 4hr drive one way.
A tick list for a new car would be cruise control, comfy and working aircon!

In what seems to be a reverse situation to the apes in Japan, who sit in a hot spring to escape the cold
in the winter, we were doing the reverse by sitting in the car with the air con on at full blast in France last week, to avoid the kin hot day (and night)time temperatures.
The worst I have had with this, was some years ago in the summer which killed a large number of the elderly in France through heat stroke.
The car we had then, had a video player, so we just whiled the night away watching films, before returning to the house in the early hours of the morning when it was `just' cool enough to hit the sack and get some sleep.
I generally don't mind the heat, but `that' year it was f***in ridiculous. We put some bacon on the roof of the car, and it fried like it had just been put in a hot pan! Give me air con or climate control, every time.

Prior to having it, obviously I could live without it.
After having a car with it, I don't think I'd get one without good aircon at least.
Driving around in the current weather being gently buffeted by nice cool air, even when stopped at traffic lights, can't really imagine going back to sweating through the summer months.
