£25,000

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Powerful engine good in straight line, being the Sport version - suspension is quite hard. But I have no need to throw the car around at my age (SWMBO starts screaming).
What's it like to park?
With both F/R parking sensors - no problems - with the top down - dead easy!
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
No
What's most practical about your car?
The 350 Petrol is as rare as hen's teeth on the used car market, especially with the options I wanted - but the power and performance (although no considered practical) is second main reason I bought it! The first being a convertible!
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Air Scarf and heated seats - so the top come down even on a winters day when the sun is shining!
