I should also have mentioned that when it reaches 30°C plus in the shade and you have several hours driving to do under a broiling sun not only do the side screens go on but the hood goes up and the aircon gets turned on.
I know this situation doesn't occur in the UK but if you think to tour the southern European zones in July you will bless the day you ordered aircon as an option.
Oh it does happen here - just not that often. It was over 30c here yesterday and has been up there maybe 5 days this year. Probably why soft top cars are popular in the UK. The summer temperatures are rather more attractive than round the med.
