Covertibles For over 30's ?
« on: June 30, 2012, 08:25:07 pm »
Now i don't know about the rest of you but when i see anyone over 25/30 in a convertible in the UK i immedialtely think " Knob" "Gay" "****" etc

Is there one that won't make me think this of the person driving it ?

I can't think of one.

Haha, for real? I'd say that is one of the most "gay" convertibles!

Mercedes SL (R230) with a proper engine (55 AMG, 63 AMG, 65 AMG)

also disagree with the Ferrari 458 being "gay". i'm generally not a convertible fan (particularly in a sports car - what's the point?) but if my numbers came up it would take wild horses to drag me away from the Ferrari dealership for one of those, and i've always been a Lambo guy.

I never felt gay or like a knob when I used to drive my bro's Lamborghini Gallardo spider... I felt like the Snobby C U next Tuesday and drove like one too...

My mate had a Powder blue Lambo Gallardo spider , he's 6'6" 20 stone american football player and he still looked odd driving it , he's a bit over 25 !
Fantastic car and an amazing sound but he got rid , has had all sorts but now got a New Golf R  :)

Depends on your budget! I would recommend a classic convertible.

My father has a Jaguar E Type roadster and he is nearly 70, I'm 40 and and if anything I reckon I'm at least 10-15 years away from looking "right" in it! Am probably biased but the greatest looking convertible ever made.  I never look at an older man driving a classic convertible and think you prat but in a Lambo of Ferrari, always!!!!

Pagani Zonda Roadster perhaps? Or maybe Merc SLS roadster?

Or are they also in the "looks like a bell end" category too.

Convertible cars and guys a tricky combo..but...............

Convertible cars and girls a very different proposition, **expecting a RR photo to show an example of this premise along soon !!!**
