Re: What is the coldest temperature .....
I think the coldest I've had it is about 13, and that was pushing it.
I know what you are like wanda, as long as you can still see out the windscreen, roof down lol

Yep its writen in the manual. and I quote "please enjoy the car as much as possible"

Re: What is the coldest temperature .....
Was 2C and had a coat, hat and scarf on but with the climate control right up it was very pleasent. I don't have a garage and don't think you should lower the roof if it has frost on it as it can't be good for the seals. I take it Wanda that you must garage the car to operqate the roof at below frezzing conditions?

No actually it was after a trip so all the frost had been blown or melted off.

At 7am this morning it was 7C and the sun was coming out so out came my fleece and of came the roof, was amazed that I passed another cc driver with the roof off as well, they didn't wave though

We need to ask the government to spread awareness of fellow cc drivers to acknowledge each other.

If it's not raining, roof is down! Convertibles should be driven roof down, only putting it up when it rains! I've been out in 2 deg with coat and hat and heater on full-no problem.

-9 Roof off!
Hey! tough guy! A! A!
Well not really, truth be known I bought some timber from BnQ and it would not fit in the car
Only way to get it home was drop the roof, Ye Gods it was cold, even with AC on 27, NEVER AGAIN!
I was even questioned about some kind of apendage sticking out of my head by some young chap at a crossing, another shouted Tanker? I know it is a rather big car but no where near the size of a tanker, he must have been confused
