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

Unhurried drivers should not expect that local motorists will give them way on busy routes, and then will patiently wait until the slow driver finally finished his maneuver. It is important to act in strict accordance with the established traffic rules and be very determined.
In general, in large cities the traffic is very slow between 7:00 am and 8:30 am, and between 16:30 to 18:00. If possible, it is better to refrain from using private transport during these hours.
The road that connects Johannesburg with Pretoria is considered one of the busiest routes in the country. On weekdays, there are always heavy traffic jams on the road, and car accidents happen almost every day.
