DIY hardtop?

5 Upvotes

As I am closing in on my driver's license, I've started looking for my first car, and I've recently fallen in love with the Ford escort. However I live in Sweden, meaning the winters are very cold, and the Escort never had a cc model. How difficult would it be to make a DIY hardtop for the winter seasons? Would it be possible to simply buy an extra soft-top and insulate it? Looking for advice and suggestions.

This is a car out of New England I recently saw that was one of the finest convertibles I had ever seen or got to inspect. Take a look at the holy grail Coronet RT 440 Magnum.

I’m looking for a convertible as my first car!! what do i start looking for?

3 Upvotes

Hi!!! I’m 20, and looking into doing research for my first car and have seriously fallen in love with the idea of a (hard top) convertible 😭 I’m working on my license and just started a new job—and i’m completely unaware when it comes to ANYTHING cars and i’m like really scared about even thinking of buying one😭😭

especially because i’m 6’2 car buying is really intimidating. i don’t want to accidentally buy a car i can’t fit in :(

i know like, beetles are as unrealistic as they are cute because the repairs and parts are going to be 3x the price bc they’re foreign. and i know that if a convertible is your main car you really gotta think about the weather where you live, especially with a soft top. i live in the midwest an already know it might be a problem😭

but other than that!! i’m genuinely like completely stupid when it comes to cars, like idk what makes and models are or stuff like that and could really use some help :(
if anyone has any experience/knowledge about buying/having a convertible, any convertible!! your advice is very much welcome!! explain it to me like you would a toddler i’m so serious, im really trying to learn as much as i can while im saving and before i even go and start looking. thank you!!!

Convertible at 20yo ?

5 Upvotes

Hey,

I'm 20 years old and I'm seriously considering buying my first "fun" car. I've always loved convertibles, and while looking at the market, I came across models like the Peugeot 306 Cabriolet, the Fiat Barchetta, etc., within a maximum budget of €10,000.

The thing is, I don't have a huge budget for maintenance, so I'd like to get some honest feedback from people who have owned one or who know about them.

My questions:

- Is it really more expensive to maintain than a "normal" car?

- How problematic/expensive is the convertible top to repair or replace?

- Is it a bad idea as a main car?

- Are there any models to absolutely avoid within this budget?

Conversely, what would you recommend as a reliable convertible under €10k with relatively low mileage?

I'm open to all advice, even things you might not immediately think of (insurance, common problems, mistakes to avoid, etc.). I'm really looking for honest, unbiased opinions to know if I'm making a mistake or not 😅

Thanks!

Hello, I'm 20 years old and I'm looking for a new car to replace my 2017 Polo 5, a great car but boring in my opinion.

So I'm looking for a convertible; I've always dreamed of owning one, but I'm struggling with my requirements in terms of price and feasibility.

My budget is between €5,000 and €9,000. I'm looking for a model with less than 90,000-100,000 km and no more than 130 hp. I hope to find a model that doesn't consume more than 8 liters per 100 km and has a decent interior.

So far, I've been looking at the Fiat Barchetta as my top choice, but I'm worried about the build quality. I also like the Peugeot 306 convertible, but I find it expensive for what it offers in terms of quality. I've also seen the MX-5 NB, but it's usually beyond my budget.

I'm not necessarily looking for a sports car, but I do want a car with style. For example, the Renault Wind, Ford Streetka, etc., aren't really my style. I'm looking forward to your advice!

Laquelle choisir ?

0 Upvotes

Bonjour, j'ai 20 ans et je suis à la recherche d'une nouvelle voiture pour remplacer ma Polo 5 de 2017, une voiture nickel mais ennuyeuse à mon goût.

Je cherche donc une cabriolet, j'ai toujours rêvé d'en avoir mais je suis confronté aux soucis de mes exigences en terme de prix et de faisabilité.

mon budget est entre 5000 et 9000 euros, je cherche un modèle avec moins de 90000km-100000km, qui ne dépasse pas les 130cv. J'espère trouver une modèle qui ne consomme pas plus de 8L/100km, et qui présente une qualité d'interieur correcte.

pour l'instant je me suis intéressé à la Fiat barchetta en 1ère position, mais la qualité de matériel m'inquiète.

J'aime aussi la 306 cabriolet mais je trouve ça cher pour ce que c'est en terme de qualité.

J'ai aussi vu la MX5 nb mais cela dépasse mon budget la plupart du temps.

Je ne recherche pas forcément une sportive mais je veux une voiture qui a de la gueule. Par exemple, les Renault wind, Ford streetka etc.. ce n'est pas à mon goût. J'attends vos conseils !!

Repair Question

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a 2001 Mercedes SLK 320 but the hydraulic hose on it has a tear and wont open the roof without spilling fluid everywhere. I was curious if anyone has experience with a similar problem and has any tips on fixing/repairing it because as far as I can tell there are no DIY videos online for my problem.

Which one of the two have a reliable convertible top and are easy to repair? Mustang or Camaro?
