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

The fine issued for a minor traffic regulations violation can be paid to a police officer. If there’s no cash, the payment can be made by a credit card. If a driver does not pay the fine for some reason, his car can be confiscated.
Do not try to reduce the fines by filling a claim to court. In this case, their size may increase substantially. The reason for this fact is that the court takes into account the level of income of the violator when calculating the amount of fines.
Local petrol stations sell non-ethylated gasoline and diesel fuel. The most popular type of gasoline is E10 (containing 10% ethanol), but it is suitable not for all types of vehicles.
