No picture, but quite often on my way home I see a black e89 driving the other way, ALWAYS with its roof up, even in this weather! I on the other hand, always have my roof down unless its raining (ok, not on the motorway).

Barnstaple, North Devon, either on an A road or windy country road.

No explanation for it! Its been happening for several months now, each time has been mandatory roof down conditions, not always sunny, but not cold either.

Ok. Roof down this morning till about 3 miles from work when it started to rain very slightly, so had to pull over and put it up. With the weather predicted to be rain I didnt want to risk it.

It got a tiny bit heavier and could’ve made it but took the safe option.

Misserable passenger cow I saw last night didnt! They pulled up next to me at traffic lights in a light gold e89 and whilst I was looking across hoping to catch her eye, she made an effort to ignore me! Even though they were behind me initially, so definately knew I was there! Had the feeling that she thought they were better than me!
