How to store a convertible long term?
I just purchased my first convertible. (2017 S650 Maybach Cabriolet with 700 miles on it). It will be stored indoors and under a car cover. It will be driven on occasion (probably once or twice a month most of the year (I'm in Southern California). I was wondering what's the best/proper way to store a convertible? Top-up? (my preference) or top-down?
