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

Help on the rental process
In the UK, there is left-hand traffic, so tourists, who are accustomed to right-hand traffic, may need some time to adapt. Drivers, who got a driving license not long ago, must be especially careful in order not to lose sight of the main feature of local roads.
The abovementioned peculiarity means that overtaking on roads can only be made on the right. It should be also noticed that all the roads in the UK are highly informative, so driving on them is not difficult and very enjoyable.
At crossroads with circular motion, cars to the right have the advantage. Drivers, who are used to the concept of “hindrance on the right”, should always remember about this peculiarity of local roads and crossroads.
