End of the road for the convertible car: Just 11 soft-top models from major brands remain - but used prices are rising

With just 11 convertible models left from major brands, the era of the iconic soft-top car seems to be coming to an end in Britain, historically one of Europe's largest markets for these vehicles. This dwindling selection is pushing up the prices of used convertibles, making them less accessible to enthusiasts. As manufacturers phase out these models, collectors and fans are seeing rising values for older, rare models, indicating a shift in the automotive market towards more practical and electric alternatives.
