Reasons to Hire a Convertible in Malaga
If you’re planning a trip to Malaga, there’s no better way to tour the Costa del Sol than in a convertible. Here are 3 excellent reasons to hire a convertible in Malaga.
Driving is much more fun
It´s not the same driving a small or family car to take you to locations or renting a convertible in Malaga.
The sense of freedom that gives you the sound of wind when not being enclosed will make you want to bring your convertible even to buy gum at the corner kiosk.
Ideal for photography lovers
Are you passionate about photography? You need a convertible. While your partner or friend drives you can take plenty of pictures and videos of Andalusia, whose roads offer some of the most breath-taking views of Spain.
Also, by not having bodywork elements that reduce your visibility, you can make incredible panoramic pics and even 360º videos.
You’ll feel like a star
No matter the type of convertible: new, old, long, small; as one passes by, no one can resist watching it with a face of “someday I’ll have a convertible.” If you want to take it to another level, take a tour of Puerto Banus, probably you´ll show up in the Facebook wall of some tourists.

Tips to get the most out of your convertible hire in Malaga
Solar radiation
Keep in mind that here in Malaga the solar radiation is very strong during a good part of the year. So, the central hours of the summer are not the best time to remove the top.
If you do so, we advise you to drive with a hat and sunscreen to protect you from UV rays.
Space in a convertible
Always bear in mind that a convertible has much more limited space, as part of the boot is used to store the soft top.
Most convertibles are designed to travel with fairly light luggage. It is therefore necessary to optimise the cargo space and to take into account that many Cabrios have only four seats.
How to drive a convertible
Driving a convertible requires no special knowledge. They are basically all the same as their closed version.
If you are travelling with passengers in the rear seats, be aware that they receive more wind turbulence than in the front seats. In other words, if you merrily travel a long stretch on the motorway with the soft top off, the journey may become a nightmare for them.
