Exclamation Love it!

Just thinking about my journey home last week. It was dark but a really clear night so put the roof down, heater up full and put my ipod on loud!

Had a fantastic journey home with loads of fresh air and singing loudly.

Am I the only one who looks like a lunatic with their roof down in the dark in the middle of winter?

There are few things* more fantastic than driving with the roof down on a crisp clear night


*with your clothes on

I drove from Gloucester to Hemel last December with the roof down all the way. It was great apart from stopping at lights and being roasted by the heaters. Cleared a hangover too.

We've been lucky with our weather on the Essex riviera lately haven't we Dawn?

I should have my hardtop on but didn't bother as my car's going in for repair in the New Year. I'm so glad as I've had some fantastic roof down action day and night on my 'buggered' Bridgestones (don't tell aldfort) recently.

I too sing at the top of my voice and look like a lunatic, only more so. Someone said to me the other day, "You just don't care do you?" And I don't because I love it so much.

Hey, I'm from Essex... You're right though, ten years in Hampshire and I've gone soft. Maybe I'll do this taking-the-lid-off-the-airbox thing too just to make a complete spectacle of myself

I never drive with the roof up unless it is raining,
my S is a motorbike with 4 wheels

Who are all these wimps with hard tops?
