Owning a convertible is a great option for those who want to enjoy the best of the British summer time while driving their dream car. So it's hardly surprising that sales of convertibles will often be sky rocketed in Britain near the early days of the summer season.
Understandable it may seem a bit weird to even think about getting a convertible in the depths of winter where everywhere is cold and wet - not exactly ideal for taking the roof down.
However, the winter months are often the best times to buy a new or used convertible. Here are our reasons why.
With the ongoing cold weather in the autumn and winter period will lead to great focus towards 4x4's and crossovers. While it's understandably tempting to pickup a convertible when the sun is shining, but if you plan ahead, you can pickup your dream convertible with a price tag to match it.
Even though it may be cold outside, but modern convertibles are not supposed to just be used in the summer months. Cars like the BMW 3 Series or the Mercedes E Class offer a warm comfortable cabin when the roof is up or down.
Head of Consumer Services for HPI explained "To maximise potential savings, its a good idea to plan what type of car you want in advance and be clever about it - no one drives around with the roof down in the middle of winter, so now is a good time to consider buying a convertible as demand is low and in turn so are prices. Alternatively, if you are looking for a 4x4 to tackle the snowy roads, it will be better to look for that particular car in the summer when demand will also be low.
Initially it might not be the most appealing time to purchase a used car, the UK's harsh winter can certainly offer some benefits when it comes to picking up a bargain.
