Or Not To Be.... That is the question...


Why, oh why, do people buy convertibles, and then not use them as appropriate? OK, we can kinda (ulmost understand and almost forgive) the TVR Le Mans Mullet Brigade, (Chimeara Pilots You Are SOOOO Guilty!) but the precession of MGs, MX5s, BMWs, etc is beyond belief.

shout GET IT OFF!

It's called choice. If they wanted to lower it, they probably would have.

There were times in the S2k when I was grateful for the roof and excellent air-con.

Those days are not THAT common in the UK, admittedly biggrin

Yep, but EVERYONE in a sardine can around it would be thinking / voicing the same sentiment... "Look at that wker with the hood up"...

That says more about the other people than the person with the hood up! I've more important things to worry about than peoples choice of headroom hehe

Must say, with all this sun we're getting a rag top would be nice smile

Yeah, you've got the hood down, and enough breeze to cool your head! laugh

I know it's a bit different being over here (Aus) but in proper summer you basically can't have the roof down. You'd simply burn to a crisp, even worse that while travelling along you wouldn't notice the burn until it's too late.

When I had my MX5 I hadn't tested the aircon when I bought it, just assumed it worked. It didn't and had been disconnected as it had a custom ECU.

Black interior, black leather, aluminium gearknob, black hood, 40C+ days = not happy jan.

And then you'd get the very hot rainy days where you'd have to have the heater on to demist the thing... furious
