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

Local drivers have completely different attitude to crossings that are located in narrow streets and start at entrances of buildings. All cars must stop before these crossings.
If a car stopped behind a tram, a driver must stop and wait until all passengers leave the road. Do not attempt to drive through the crowd of people – this would be a serious violation of local traffic regulations.
In some crossroads drivers are allowed to make a right turn during the red light. Such crossroads are marked with a green arrow. Drivers are allowed to make a turn only if this will not interfere with the main traffic. Such intersections are common in East Germany, but they are not so widespread in the western part.
