It keeps my attention on driving and I just find it more fun. I drove a friend's Audi for a bit and although it was very nice, I found it very dull to drive and found myself drifting off into daydreams.
ah girl after my own heart - I learnt to drive on go-kart with dodgy brakes - every time I hit the brake I got an electric shock in my calf muscle!!

Do you find that riding in a convertible tangles your pubes? I've never noticed that.

Heated seats are the greatest invention of all time!

Heated seats, top down, brisk sea air... my only complaint about the Mustang (at least the rental jobby I have) is that a heated steering wheel would be very nice... (and that with the top up I can not see a thing out the back... reversing by braille is worrying ).

The only convertibles that allow you to see backwards are ones where the cockpit is so small that when you turn your head your nose touches the bit that was transparent when the car was new. Frog eyed Sprites are good in that regard.

Please excuse the ignorance, are we talking about a BMW MINI or a classic mini?
