"P.S. The narrators at the Barrett Jackson Auto Auction
2000 answered an Email from a viewer that wanted to
know the difference between a Carbiolet and a Spyder
(I was watching it about a week ago on Speedvision).
The men narrating stated that a Spyder is a
convertible two seat in the sports car class. And that
a Carbriolet/Cabrio is a convertible sedan that will
hold at least 4 individuals including the driver. I've
read definitions that are contrary to this on the web,
including the Pebble Beach Glossary of Car Terms which
states that a Cabrio is a convertible with windows.
And can have an indeterminate number of doors and
windows."
Does this mean my Herald 1200 Convertible is actually classable as a Herald
1200 Cabriolet? At least we don't have to worry about it being a Herald 1200
phaeton- 2 doors too few...

64 Herald 1200 Cabriolet...sounds classy
