    I don't think I would without permission. If parents are happy then I suppose it is ok, but personally I would not be happy for my children to be out in one. Don't know why really, I'm such a worrier I would be anxious incase they were involved in an accident.

    I would also ask for permission from parents for older children, but would not take babies in a convertible. HTH

    I would....the kids would LOVE it! As long as they are strapped in as normal I wouldn't hesitate (obviously I would get permissions sorted first!)

    All new convertibles, the rear head rests are reinforced, some have automatic roll bars that pop up from behind, and their windscreen frames are all strengthened to act as a frontal roll bar,

    Only know all this as we are looking at a convertible at the moment

    My mindee came in a convertible once and she was only 10 months. i thought it was excessive but what could you do. Its not illegal as far as I know!!
    When someone tells you nothing is impossible, tell them to go slam a revolving door
