Open-Top motoring....

It was your post that led me to the answer, when I read that, I looked down to find the "Cheers" post you quoted and saw his car list in his signature!!

Nicked from autoshite:-

I really must get it back on the road soon
I think it's been off for 18 months already... But I also have been reminded that I need to sort out the C5 first

The SAAB convertible goes for next to nowt at auctions, but I always like to see one. This is a bit of an odd colour, but interesting enough to click the shutter

Although this morning's shower was not conducive to open top motoring I did come up behind this rare beastie in the lanes on the way to Elstree this morning:

I like a TR7 convertible, nice colour too, and a bit tartan on the upholstery

Here's a novelty concept!!

I passed one of those smart open-tops on Friday, in Torre del Mar. Looked like a rental car jobbie.
Wonder how hard you need to pedal?

[mickthemaverick]

Good point Chris, my reaction was "So which part is supposed to be smart?"

[quintet]

I'm not sure I'd want to even try opening the doors.

Pulled? French reg plate.

[quintet]

Pulled?

Most certainly.

This is the way to do it!! :

Have you ever driven one of those Mick......horrid little things but a favourite of it's time. The clutch had about a quarter inch of travel and got to the bite point when you lifted your foot about a sixteenth of an inch.......very interesting when you first had a go, especially in reverse.
