by Mike Collier ONCE the preserve only of dedicated enthusiasts willing to put up with leaky roofs, ear-splitting wind noise, and damp, cramped cabins, convertibles are now more accessible, and more affordable, than ever before.
Refinement levels are now on a par with fixed-top coupes, and it no longer costs the earth to feel the wind in your hair. And wind in the hair motoring doesn't come much better, it has to be said, than Audi's sophisticated A4 Cabriolet. Even now after the initial launch hype has subsided, the Cabriolet's strengths haven't diminished. Although clearly influenced by the firm's A4 saloon, the Cabriolet has an identity all of its own. Smooth flanks, tight panel gaps and the measured application of chrome detailing both inside and out are just some of its wonderful highlights. It may seem rather mercenary, but there's rarely been a better time to buy MG's delightful TF. With the MG Rover parent company a tragic wreck, dealers will be desperate to rid themselves of remaining stock. If any part of the Longbridge empire is to emerge with a future it is MG in general, and the mid-engined TF in particular.
