The point of the twin top is still lost on me, I just don't get it

Agree - absolutely love the AH twin top, one of the best looking verts or 'CC' ever built...oh and what about the little Mitsu vert to add to the ugly list
The whole idea of any convertible Pete is that you have or you get 2 cars in 1 !
It only makes sense to people who like or appreciate convertibles, well me for one
The twin top or all of the newer hard top convertibles are even more true to that nature, ie. they are a true coupe/convertible, hence alot of them eg. Peugoets get the CC title in their model/variant number
I absolutely love the idea of a fantastic looking coupe, with a fantastic interior which doubles as a convertible that you could at any moment drop the top and enjoy open air motoring and/or show of its interior, the new Lotus CC's coming out in the next couple of years is what I mean

dont get me wrong, i love convertibles no doubt
i just dont see the point of having a soft top and hard top vert.

as said earlier the twin top means it has both coupe styling with the roof up and convertible with the roof down. there is no soft top on the astra tt.

Yep that one LOL
Oh now I see your point and agree, VW has done just that with the new soft top Golf vert and still keeping the almost identicle Eos as a hard top, it should be one or the other, preferably hard top for the new AJ
W'e'll have to wait and see what they do Guy, as said VW now has both (although different models they are too similar) maybe Opel wants to offer both to compete ??

Looks like a hardtop, the soft top on the proto is fake. Looks hard, taught and defined by the shape of the roof. It's trying to throw people off looking at the pics.
