TOYOTA is giving fans of its Aygo city car the chance of some classic  wind in the hair enjoyment courtesy of a new retractable x-wave canvas roof.

Looking ahead to longer, warmer days, the Japanese brand has launched the x-wave as an option on the five-door Aygo x-pression model.

Finished in black, the roof is factory fitted and full length, ensuring that anyone travelling in the rear seats also gets to enjoy some of the open-top experience.

The roof is electrically operated, using a simple switch next to the map light control in the headlining.

Specifying the x-wave adds extra appeal to the Aygo x-pression, which also features 15-inch alloy wheels, front fog lamps, projector headlights with LED daytime running lights, the x-touch multimedia system with DAB and Bluetooth, reversing camera and air conditioning.

Gloss black elements in the bodywork and the cabin help the small car make more of a style statement, contrasting with White Flash, Electro Grey, Silver Splash, Red Pop and Deep Blue Buzz paint options.

The x-wave roof costs £895 and can also be ordered with the x-tra convenience pack, plus the other options and customisation features available for x-pression, apart from the roof decals.
