The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Belgium are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet, Audi A3 Convertible, Audi A4 Convertible and BMW Z4 Roadster.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Gent 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 Belgium is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Gent 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 Gent, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

There are certainly many parking lots in each city of the country. The type of the parking lot can be detected by the color of its marking. On parking lots marked with red or green it is possible to leave a car for no more than 2 hours. If the parking lot is marked with orange, you can leave a car there for 4 hours.
Literally all the parking lots are equipped with special parking machines that are used to pay for parking. Once you pay, you will receive a parking ticket. The ticket should be placed in a prominent place on the windshield.
The cost of parking services depends on the location of the parking lot and the time of the day. In the daytime one hour of parking usually costs from 1 to 2.5 euro. If you want to park your car for a longer period, it is recommended to use the services of public parking lots. As a rule, the cost of one hour of parking at such lots is 2 - 3 euro per hour.
