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 Braunschweig 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 Braunschweig 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 Braunschweig, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

There is a lack of parking space in major cities of the country. Moreover, in many streets only local residents are allowed to park their cars (Anliegerfrei). Parking in a wrong place will result in a large fine, and parking against the traffic is considered one of the most serious violations of traffic regulations.
In order to use some free public parking, you will need a special Parkscheibe disc, which can be purchased at petrol stations. The disc is secured under the windshield and before you leave the car, you will need to mark the time of arrival to the parking lot on it. The disk must be clearly visible.
