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

Help on the rental process
In order not to incur the wrath of German drivers, you should never "stand in the way" of Mercedes and BMW. These cars are regarded as privileged members of traffic in accordance with a non-principal rule.
When you stop your car, don’t forget to stop the engine as well. Local people care about the environment, so in some cities one can get a large fine simply for standing with the running engine.
When driving on a highway at a speed that is far exceeding the recommended one (130 km/h), you must turn on the upper beams or at least the left winker - with the help of such an unwritten rule fast speed drivers alert other drivers of a possible danger.
