You lucky thing, it's been a gorgeous day here too

I was stuck at work, came home with roof up (see below *) then went running then had my boys plus two friends for tea so no topless driving opportunites for me today

* I pressed the roof button and nothing happened (can you imagine my horror? ) - after a phonecall to Minicabrio who told me to press the lock toggle switch the roof opened - phew

Wait until your mum gets home!

I spent 3 hours this morning cleaning mine, it was filthy. It's fantastic that the hosepipe ban is over (for now)!

Hope it stays fine all weekend!

You've all inspired me to go for a drive this lunchtime A bit breezy but definitely topless weather today too. Hopped 'over the border' into North Yorks and, well, it would've been rude not to stop for a picture...

Nice pic

Yes it's quite windy here in North Yorks today but the sky is blue

One hour till I leave work, I might even take a longer route home today

Inspired me to post my photo outside my office! Looks like there's a few of us in North Yorks. Mine's a whole week old today and it's the best [material] thing I have ever had! The roof hasn't been up much!

BTW Dawn, thanks for your advice before I ordered it - yours looks great too. I think I need a trip to the seaside...

Mines was a year old last Saturday but I was going away and had nowhere secure to park it and had to go in the boring car! Luckily it was throwing it down anyway!

I agree wholeheartedly! Love the alloys!
