  • Driving it

    5 out of 5 5.0

    What's it like to drive?

    It's a really handsome, fun car to drive, plenty of power, too. Around town it's pretty juicy but it has pleasantly surprised me on long journeys. I will keep this car forever.

    What's it like to park?

    Easy to park as it has front and back sensors. This car has a long nose so these sensors are a bonus.

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    I had a power steering failure which was investigated and put right by the dealer.

    What's most practical about your car?

    This car is really practical for me now as my children have grown up but I haven't! It's my bit of fun! It has a really good size boot when the roof is up so I can get loads of shopping in without putting items inside the car.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    The electric hard roof is really cool. It's nice to have the practically and good looks of a hard roof with the benefit of being a convertible car.
