WITH SUMMER STILL swinging, it is time to discuss the only sensible thing that you should be driving in this muggy heat: a convertible. It is more of a health and safety issue now than a lifestyle choice.
With that in mind, we’ve rounded up five convertibles that are not only good for your driveway but good for your wellbeing.
