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

Help on the rental process
In addition to some roads, in France drivers will need to pay for travelling through tunnels and bridges. The charge for the use of blue roads depends on the distance of a ride and on the type of a car.
Yellow marking on a road signifies the presence of parking spaces. Only owners of a special card can park their cars there. Yellow dotted lines added to the border of a pavement indicate that it is possible to make short stops (for picking up and drop-off of passengers) at this part of the road.
In large cities large parking lot can be found near underground stations. The time of use of such parking areas is limited. Drivers are usually permitted to occupy a parking space there for the period from 15 minutes to 2 hours. The time of arrival to the parking lot is recorded in a special ticket, so in case of a late payment driver will have to pay a fine.
