Having never really thought about the GranCabrio, my spur of the moment purchase is proving quite fun. We're currently down in Devon on a family surfing holiday and chose to come in the GC as opposed to the RR. The boot is small, but using the right bags you can get in what you need. That said, we are obviously hiring the boards and wetsuits down here. And if the sun ever appears we may even get the roof off!
