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

Help on the rental process
Overheating of the brakes is the most typical breakdown that inexperienced drivers have to deal with in the mountains. When going down on a mountain road, it is better to use a lower gear as this will help you avoid the breakdown.
In winter, the most dangerous time to travel on mountain roads is noon. At this time, the top layer of ice melts slightly, making the roads even more slippery. In some mountain regions it is always windy, and this fact makes driving even more complicated.
Drivers, who plan to travel in the mountain areas, should not forget the following recommendation. When leaving the car in the parking lot, do not forget to remember its location (drivers are also advised to add some distinguishing features to their cars, for example, to tie a bright cloth to the antenna). It may start snowing in the mountains literally at any moment, so in a few hours all the cars in the parking lot can be hidden under a thick layer of snow.
