An impulse buy at the local garden centre led me to discover yet another reason why a roadster is better than a coupe........ :fuelfire:

I'm used to people taking second glances at the car whilst driving down the road but this was hilarious, i'm just glad it didn't cause a RTA.

The hardest part was picking the darn thing up..ooh and cleaning all of the furry bits out of the carpet. :thumbsdown:

Yes it's also good for taking old christmas trees to the tip! Except you might end up with needles all over the interior, can't imagine how I found that out.

i think if there was a competition for carrying the most impractical object in a 2 seater, you have just won it ! :D

you car does look good in white, especially with those 108's...very nice.

I've carried 10 foot sections of PVC pipe and 8 foot long 2 X 4 as well. As long as it's not raining it's amazing what you can carry... :driving:

I wouldnt on a planned trip... but on impulse.... maybe...

the other weekend we went to pick up a standard lamp which I knew wouldnt go in my car so we took the Saxo.... Turns out it would go in that either - well not with Mrs Gannet as well.... Guess who took the train home :roll:

I have had some tall plants in my old convertibles, and collected a very large parcel from parcel farce the other week in the Z, which i had to have the roof down for, but never anything like this.

My other half use to encourage me to take the little convertible shopping as he thinks i will be less impulsive with my purchasing - but as you proved nothing is impossible.

Love it :rofl:
