The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Argentina are: Renault Megane Cabriolet, Chrysler Sebring Convertible, Ford Mustang Convertible and VW Eos Convertible.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in San Rafael require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.
We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Argentina is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in San Rafael and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.
In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.
When parking a cabriolet in San Rafael, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

If the violation is repeated, the driver faces a severer punishment - a fine of 1,000 pesos and the driving license suspension for a period of up to two years. Local authorities are quite logical when they explain such strict rules. According to them, the cigarette not only distracts the driver’s attention from the road, but its smoke also contributes to poor visibility inside the vehicle.
Motorcyclists are a serious danger for car drivers on the roads of Argentina. They ignore road markings, road signs and traffic signals, and they often ride a motorbike without a helmet despite the fact that it’s prohibited by local regulations.
Of course, local authorities know about that problem, and they try to fight with violators on motorbikes in a number of ways. For example, at some petrol stations motorcyclists, who ride without helmets, may be refused to sell fuel. Police checks are not rare on local roads. If the police notice a driver without a helmet, his motorbike will be confiscated for several days.
