Hi Marty, welcome to the forum, nice looking car even if you can’t put the roof down :poke: :rofl: :thumbsup:
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

Well the E85 had a stiffer bodyshell than the E46 Coupe, but the E86 shell was nearly twice as stiff as the E85.

So the E46 Convertible shell was not exactly rigid!

Yeah you certainly feel safer taking a fast corner with a roof over your head. Picked up a bargain hardtop for her. Going on this month for our even harder Scottish winter.
