It’s a common term Roy, which according to the analogy in the link copied below, of the best E-Type to buy, it seams it’s not the ragtop, for the following reasons....
You can clamour after roadsters all you want, but here’s a newsflash: you bought the wrong car. Not that it’s bad, on the contrary it is a magnificent beast, but as long as the coupé exists, it is the wrong car. I hear you – wind in the hair, less cockpit heat, slick waistline et cetera – but none of that matters: like the 2+2, the E-type roadster will always be an uncomfortable afterthought. Who could look at roadster and fixed-head in profile and then pay a premium to lose the world’s most sensual roof and have a fat, VW Beetle-style hood bag behind their backs.
