roof down = hair nice, clean shaven, well dressed or.......

Spent about 5 minutes detangling my locks after arriving at work today. To be fair, all you need is a pair of sunnies and you are good to go in the zed. Do you honestly think anyone pays attention to whether you are clean shaven ( not that I have a beard or moustache or anything ), or what clothes you are wearing ? Only problem I get is truck drivers looking down my cleavage :driving:

your post has lead me to believe i i am somewhat to self conscious about my appearance, if i think the roof will go down i make sure i shave, do the hair, nice shirt etc.
lol

i think its london that has done this to me, you guys have to remember most of my driving is around central london, so im surrounded by range rovers, porsches, etc all the time.

this car is actually quite dangerous for me, passing by Trafalgar square the other night with the roof off, when i heard a guy shout "put your roof up you twat" i put my hazard lights on got out the car, went straight up to the chap, there were two of them, but im 6,2 and 210 lbs, also been training/fighting mma for 4 years, i said if i want my roof down ill have it down, if you wanna take it further ill flatten the pair of you now, and they shook my hand and off i went,

im short tempered so i hope i can enjoy the car without having to inflict trauma on someone.

Fucki*ng man card classic post rofl
 
Coaldust - Yep, I think you're right it is a different environment in the centre of our large cities. You should use your judgement about whether it's appropriate to have the roof down.Would have thought central London could be a more potentially risky place to drive top down at night.

However, I'd take the 6'2'' 210lbs and MMA over the nice hair and shave! :lol:
 
If it helps the sense of occasion, then go for it :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

No point driving a nice looking car if you look like a tramp IMO 8)

Been guilty of that lol

The only person I shave for is my wife .... It's a pain in the arse!


Sunnies are the only thing required !
 
Really couldn't give a s**t, cars always immaculate but I'm pretty scruffy most the time I'm in it....
Lmao !!!!

People can see through the windows when the roof is up so surely being able to see you with the roof down is no different
 
I don't like looking scruffy driving the Zed. In fact I don't like looking scruffy in general. That's just who I am. People are different.
 
some blokes coaldust was driving past said:
"put your roof up you twat" .
Do we have a new motto for the exclusive coupe club?

:rofl:

Seriously though - who cares what the owner of a convertible looks like.
Or any other car come to think of it.

The idea of roof down is so than you can see & feel the world around you, as you travel through it. Personally don't give a fig what the world thinks of me or the car, when I'm driving it. /quote]

β€œIn a car you're always in a compartment, and because you're used to it you don't realize that through that car window everything you see is just more TV. You're a passive observer and it is all moving by you boringly in a frame. On a motorcycle the frame is gone. You're completely in contact with it all. You're in the scene, not just watching it anymore, and the sense of presence is overwhelming.”
― Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance:


Which is why lots of bikers have soft top cars.

I'm in the scruff bag camp, always in need of a haircut / shave, I live in jeans and a T shirt. don't possess a tie (there's a black funeral one somewhere but that doesn't count) and the last time I saw my one and only suit was at the wedding I bought it for 10 years ago! I also never use the wind deflector on the Z so my hair is usually knotted - or squashed flat from my crash helemt. In short I had a vanity by-pass years ago so don't really give a stuff what anyone thinks of how I look. This weather, beany hat and fleece with the top down, heated seat on full and blower going full tilt in my face - luvly jubbly :)
 
The roof button is pressed even more quickly if I'm feeling rough and/or hungover.

Roof down whatever in my eyes!
