Mines up and down
After a long day in direct sun
Trust me you put the roof up in midday heat
Then down once intensity dies

No surprise then why manfacturers sell more verts in the UK than places like Spain, France and Italy. Only Germany buys more

Yes, fantastic driving to work last week and this morning. Beth and I drove to Cheddar Gorge on Friday after work for Fish and Chips followed by a thrash through the gorge with the roof down and exhaust valve open. :driving: :D

Its funny you should say that about M roadsters. I saw my first M roadster on the road since I bought my zed nearly 2 years ago now. I was driving through Swinton near Manchester and have to admit I wasn't sure about an imola red zed but having seen one in the flesh I really like it.
Anyone on here?
I guess I should post this in the spotted thread too.

I find a convertible just on another level completely with the roof down on nice roads. Part of the reason I switched from a 911.

Mine is down most seasons! What an awesome induction note, even as stock with the roof down :driving:
