As the title goes... is there such a thing?

Anything goes, doesn't have to be quick, just something for summer fun for the family..

I dunno what they are in they are in the UK, or even if they exist over there, but off the top of my head:

Ford Mustang Convertible
Chevy Camaro Convertible (there might be a vauxhall or opel equivalent)
Toyota Solara Convertible
Mitsubishi Spyder
vw cabrio
Mini Cooper Convertible (only a 2+2 though)
bmw 3 & 6 series
i think some of the older 911's were softtops

good luck, if all else fails... get a hacksaw and a vw

Mercedes SL convertible
Audi 80/A4 cabriolet

Nothing in the UK. CLKs, A4s, 3 series' all have only two seats in the back. Probably buy something American.

Saab 9-3?

Chrysler Sebring convertible is, AFAIK, the only 5-seater convertible on sale in the UK.

DoctorEvil

Citroen do one in the C3 apparently

Bubba po

Saab 9-3 Aero seems the business... they look great. Got to be five seats there, unless you're taking five fatties to the seaside.....

carl

Saab 9-3 Convertible has only four seats (i.e. only four seatbelts).

Bubba po

Really? How cack. Not even a central lap-belt? or are they illegal now?

bloke

And they are bloody small seats cos like most cabs the roof mechanism removes some of the space

How about a 2cv

bloke

Or some of the 4wd's do two sets of sun-roofs?

Or you might be better off looking at older pre-electric roof carsif it's just for 1 summer - where the roof sits on the back of the car rather than disappears?

freelander?

ianc

Indeed, all the 3series \ saab \ A4's are 2 seats in the rear.. as are the frontera sport, vitara's etc..

It's only for three kids in the back, all under 5... so I need to buy something old, american, and with a burbly V8? Hmmm...

Audi S4 convertible mmmmmmmm



sure you could squeeze 5 in if you had to???

ianc

only two seatbelts... how would you choose which one of your children was going to die in an accident???

JoeyDeacon

If one was ginger it would be an easy choice.

DoctorEvil

Went through this same process, couldn't find anything at sensible price with 5 full seat belts.

Checked the following C3, 206/307cc Megane Astra, BMW, A4, Mini and then gave up and bought the wife a tin top

What about Merc CLK's ??

ianc

CLK cab is a four seater...

Looks like only option is something with a huge moonroof... shame

..or old an american and chromey...

carl

CLK coupe is a four seater too, but with a bigger space between the rear seats than the convertible. Seems a bit odd -- surely they could have fitted a seat in there
