There is a FACTORY convertible on the way, but it's "only" an evoque

If you're more cashed up you can get a Vogue convertibalised....

by Newport Convertible Engineering BUT given the major changes it will no doubt cost a LOT of money !


Here are a few more from various people...

The convertibles are all hideous.... I'm with Jon - if you're going to cut the roof off, that 4 door down the bottom is the go.

Some more REAL Rangies, converted... for better or (in many cases) worse.

I don't know if I could bring myself to cut up a decent two door these days. They are getting a bit thin on the ground.

Convertible in Qld, you must be an idiot

You will get sunstroke in not time down the motorway.

Always laugh when I see these idiots driving down the motorways in their Audi's and BMW's with the roof down and not hats on.

I have a V8 D1 in the shed that I have earmarked for a project like this. I was thinking cut off the door tops as well and placing an inverted U channel around the hip line Series style. Add a bikini top and it would be a perfect car for a summer run down the beach.:cool:
