The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Canada are: 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 Vancouver 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 Canada is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Vancouver 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 Vancouver, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Highways are very rare in Western Canada. The speed limit on the majority of roads is 80 km/h. The absence of a large number of paid roads is, without a doubt, the main advantage of the roads in this region.
Many roads have special lanes marked as «HOV». These lanes are only for the cars that have at least one passenger in addition to the driver. Because of this reason, it is more convenient to travel on the local roads in a large company. Many drivers intentionally take fellow travelers with them (of course, friends, and not people who hitch on the road).
The center and side lines of country roads often have special marks. If a car’s wheel runs into this mark, the car starts vibrating and makes a very loud sound. Such precautions have been taken in order to help drivers ride in the right lane in poor visibility conditions. The markings are also helpful in alerting drivers who may fall asleep while driving.
