Hi All

Just wondering how many of you still put your roof down in the current weather climates hehe..
I did yesterday whilst at Birmingham and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be with the help of all the
heaters and the wind deflector

((P.s. No im not mad lol.. why have a convertible if you dont put the roof down at times!!))

Most def do!! And have done 2 journeys with roof down today - in Birmingham as it happens. Its been nice and blue out, do why not?! Was 5.5 degrees, so not a problem with a spot of heating on!

What colour is your Eos? It wasnt you who I spotted yesterday was it in a Black Eos???

Me too, so long as it is dry and not too windy. The lowest temp I have driven the car in with the roof down is -5

 

[cambourne7]

[anna_r]

Have the roof down as often as I can. Had roof down on Saturday morning even though it was only a short journey. Have to make the most of it

As long as it's sunny and, from experience, at least 5°C, then I enjoy roof down driving...

As long as it is dry I put the roof down as much as possible. With the heater on and wind deflector up it is a real pleasure. I often wonder whether people are admiring the car or thinking look at that idiot

Phillbilly They are actually thinking ' God I wish I had a car like that' !
On a beautiful day when I'm driving 'topless' and a Rolls or Bently comes towards me I just know they are thinking 'wish I'd got one of those instead'!
Welcome by the way.

For that kind of money they could have one in every color and drive a different one every day!

And another winter is upon us, minus 1 this morning and the top goes down whenever the rain allows and the same with the 306 Cab, still hear people say that convertibles are for summer use only and don't make good winter drives, wot a load of tosh, it's a car and it's got a heater!

 

[Odie]

Had mine down today coming up the Fosse Way from Oxfordshire to Warwickshire. I did get caught in the odd snow shower, but because I was moving it all went over the top.

 

[Barchetta]

The only time my roof is up is when it rains.

 

[eostonykeos]

Took the Mrs to see the light's, oxford street, with the roof dow the view was WOW,
but did get the looks from other people "idiot" comes to mind......
oh and the temp was -2 at 11 pm..

 

[Ray-of-Sunshine]

Well as this is all new to me and I just my Eos and my first convertible I have had the top down twice first time at night in the country so nobody could see me land the second I braved it last Saturday as it was sunny be a very cold wind, I don't have the wind deflector.
