I need a big convertible....i only have a 0.7 litre convertible now.....

I would suggest getting a small convertible with a big engine. In 3 or 4 years have a look at an F type as they will be affordable by then. A lovely car especially in V8 form. Personally, I'd forget the 'big' convertibles like the DB7 as, generally, they are barges.

Been away for a couple of days and when I return home there she is just sitting there waiting. Might have to take her out for a blast tomorrow :)

The nipper is back after 2 months away, so will be putting the kiddie seat in the Spyder & taking him for a top-down drive if it's not raining...his Mama won't let me get his head wet if it is...spoilsport!

After driving the Spyder in both rain and shine, night and day I can honestly say that not since the arrival of the SZ have I enjoyed a new toy as much, it is a stunning piece of automotive engineering - love it

Spyder washed between showers.

I always say I should wash a car before I buy it as it's only then you find ever mark, scratch, chip, dent etc but this time not a problem as there aren't any to talk of. A slight mismatch in paint colour between the nose and the rest of the car but I already knew that. I will wait for it to pick up a few stone chips before I get it redone.

Still smiling :) :) :)

If his head is getting wet, Chris, you're not going fast enough.

Was out in mine today - then washed it.

Still an occasion every time.
Bit more noise from my new X Pipe as well. Lovely!
