The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Romania are: BMW 3 series Cabriolet, Peugeot 206 Cabriolet, Renault Megane Cabriolet and Audi A3 Convertible.
At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Timisoara 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 Romania is quite high.
Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Timisoara 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 Timisoara, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Help on the rental process
Starting from 2006, it has become mandatory to use low beams on local roads. Drivers are allowed to use anti-fog lights only when weather conditions are bad, otherwise the offender will be fined.
In Romania, you can use radar detectors. There are no penalties about them in the country. However, drivers should not forget that many police cars are equipped with modern laser radar equipment, so not all radar detectors can identify them. The use of anti-radar equipment is prohibited, and the offender is likely to receive a huge fine. Of course, the prohibited device will be immediately confiscated.
Speeding remains the most frequently issued fine. Police patrols are often on duty in very secluded areas along roadsides, so it is almost impossible to notice them. If you’ve got a fine, it is recommended to pay it off within first two days because, in this case, you can count on a 50% discount.
