Right, although BMC and subsequently BL seems to have
been changing its mind on exactly what term to use
over the years.  Most of the early references seem to
use "tourer" for convertible models, but "roadster"
crops up a lot too.  In fact, the last MGB ever
manufactured is in the museum with a sign referring to
it as a "roadster."

I call mine a "cabriolet".  (Just kidding.)
