I think we have to get the definitions right. A convertible is a vehicle that 
has a removable top, but the top is fixed to the car. Like the case is with BJ7 
and BJ8. The BT7 is a roadster, meaning that the top is removable, and is not 
fixed to the vehicle. I suggest a simple Googling on this and you will get the 
terms right.

Best regards, Per
