Could do a weekend in early December? Will be a bit warmer then and more suited to "open top" driving. It's still just a little bit on the nippy side at the moment.

Yeah it's sunny now, last night was the complete opposite. It's amazing how fast it turned around

Yeah I didn't bother taking the hard top off so unfortunately I've gotta drive home with that up which is a real shame! Weather forecast seems to be fine tomorrow and Saturday though so I'll be leaving it at home from tonight onwards!

Do you run the hard top with the soft top still installed? People seem to have only either one.

Yeah I keep the soft top installed, I only picked the hard top up a couple of weeks ago and with the crap weather around here I thought I'd leave it on to see how it holds up. Regretting that decision today though!

How about meet in town somewhere then out to scenic drive through henderson or even swanson out to piha and back again?

Great road when morons aren't meandering through it .....

Only problem I see with that idea is traffic lights etc, maybe meet up but set a second point where everyone can park up near scenic drive incase people get left behind at a traffic light.
