Mercedes-Benz E-class Cabriolet
The new Mercedes-Benz E-class Cabriolet is a lovely, elegant looking car, both with hood up or down. This new drophead replaces the old CLK and is the fourth addition to the E-Class range.
This elegant car shuns a hard-top and continues to favour the more traditional folding fabric. The hood can be opened or closed in 20 seconds at speeds of up to 25mph. Boot space with the roof closed is 390 litres, dropping to 300 litres when it is retracted.
Among the features on the E-class Cabriolet is a new AIRCAP system developed by Mercedes themselves and claimed to be a world first. A wind deflector rises six inches out of the windscreen rail, and together with a wind deflector between the rear seats, cuts down the draught. The AIRCAP wind deflector can be activated at speeds of up to 100mphm and will stay in place up to the E-Class Cabriolet's top speed.
There are seven airbags fitted as standard together with 35mm thick rollbars and an Attention Assist drowsiness detection system.
Several new direct-injection motors are available, ranging from a 168hp diesel unit to a 383bhp petrol V8.
The Mercedes E-class Cabriolet is now on sale in the UK.

Renault Wind
The Renault Wind, a small two-seater coupé-roadster is intended to take on the Mini convertible and the Peugeot 207CC. Renault says it distinctive and compact, but also convertible yet practical enough for everyday use.
The Wind is based on the same platform as the Twingo but is 200mm longer, and will be marketed separately. According to Renault, everything an owner "sees or touches" in the Wind will be unique to it.
It has a novel electric roof that pivots open in 12 seconds, without having any effect on luggage capacity – an important feature which will outperform the latest crop of convertibles with retractable metal roofs.
Just two engines are available, the 99bhp 1.2 TCE from the Twingo GT and the 131bhp 1.6 from the Twingo Renaultsport.

Volvo All-New S60 Saloon
An all-new S60 saloon is sportier and more distinct than any previous Volvo, says the firm. To make sure, engineers spent weeks fine-tuning the dampers in the English countryside.
It looks and drives like no other Volvo before and the car's technology will help you to be safer and more confident behind the wheel.
The Volvo S60 can be equipped with Pedestrian Detection - a groundbreaking safety feature. This cost-option system consists of a newly-developed radar incorporated into the grille, a camera in front of the rear-view mirror and a central control unit.
If the system spots a pedestrian in the road ahead - confirmed by both radar and camera - the driver receives an audible and visual warning. If he fails to brake in time, an automatic braking system takes over.
The new S60 is available with a choice of two diesels and one petrol engine, including an uprated high-performance 3.0-litre T6 petrol version producing 304bhp, a 2.4-litre 205bhp D5 and a 2.0-litre 163bhp D3.
A low-emissions DRIVe version, powered by a 1.6-litre diesel engine producing 115g/km of CO2 and offering an EU Combined fuel consumption figure of up to 65.7mpg, will be offered from 2011.
The new S60 is now on sale in the UK.
