Great as the 35d engine is, diesel convertibles seem wrong to me! The effortless torque suits the convertible cruiser character, but the engine sounds that but more diesel-like with a window down.

Maybe a car for Happycow!

Agreed convertibles should only ever (on pain of death) be petrol and even then a decent size engine to match the car.

Would be like driving a Massey Fergusson with the windows removed.
