That will lead to another question, should I have the hard top on, or only the soft top?
The noise could be a little frustrating for 4000 km on a week, with only the soft top on...

Dear Peter,
cannot really follow the discussion about hard- and softtop and noises.
I never used the hardtop since I bought the car and whenever there is no rain we even do not use the softtop up to a speed of 150 km/h. With side windows up and rear wind screen up it is fantastic driving and feeling the elements. Last year we passed Zwitserland during a heavy rain shower on the Highway with no chance to stop to close the roof. I was surprised that we really stayed dry inside while we drove along with a speed of 100 km/h.
That is what makes fun driving a roadster like the SL.

Which area of Austria you are aiming for or could Switserland be an option? They have wunderfull mountain passes there.

Trevligt resa!
