Seeing as you are experiencing high temps, here is a tip to quickly cool your car down when it has been parked in the sun.

1. Open passenger window fully.

2. Open and shut the driver door five times


That is it!  It seems to work. Must be something to do with creating movement in the air.

32 degrees where I am.
Here's a better tip, keep all windows closed start engine turn cc to low and smile......

Im assuming your not currently in Kerry Don ? I doubt its ever been 32 in Kerry.

Or head for the hills, that`s what we did today &  broke out the picnic on Butser Hill 
Just about 10 cars in the CP & the place is virtually deserted
Swallows & kestrels flew around us & high overhead I could hear Buzzards calling
Down below the harvest is in full swing, with huge pall`s of dust visible at multiple locations
Around about 5 pm the cooling breeze dropped to virtually nothing & it went quiet & sultry.
A hot air ballon G-CKXR drfted lazily by heading north, the pilot dropped some alitude as he passed over the hill; why do they always look so unsafe to me

Went up there one evening last year when there was a massive thunderstorm on the south coast. What a light show!

Car park was surprisingly busy and not sure they were there for the thunderstorm  so parked up in a layby up the road to watch the storm just in case.

My daughter bought me a balloon trip as a birthday present a few years ago - wonderful! I dislike heights and was quite scared (Marks and Spencer scared!), but after several reschedulings, I was used to the fear and was ok with the flight. When airborne, the silence when the burner was off was amazing; mainly all I could hear was the occasional barking dog.

I left the BMW parked with the roof down in the sun yesterday ..

.. just about took the skin off my back when I sat back down on the black leather seat 

[Lizzie Zoom]

Has anyone tried to cut the roof off an Omega, to make it a convertable?

I bloody need to with these superb temperatures!

 We watched the sunset & left in the gathering gloom, just as lots of  cars were only just arriving; but surely there`s nothing left to see after dark  is there.

I too am a bit scared of heights.  So I was nervous when we booked a balloon trip over the west bank of the Nile at Luxor (so over Hatshepsut temple, and high enough to see the Valley of the Kings and Valley of the Queens, and of course the Nile).  But it was epic, watching the sun rise from a balloon, seeing the shadows form and shorten.
