Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
For a good looking convertable they really are very affordable.
Costs
Either my dealer's dodgy or the servicing bills are a little on the pricey side.

On the road
Driving
You can feel a little disconnected from the steering on fast country lanes, on the whole though its just a very polite sports car, maybe even a little dull.
Performance
Acceleration isn't neck breaking but has good torque and goes well on the motorway. Keep it a +4000 Revs to get the fun out of it.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Spot on so far, a few little niggling faults but even in winter it started up on the first turnover.
Image
You'll get the odd jealous comment but I have to admit it's an attractive car and you do get noticed.
Comfort
Not th best in my opinion, very squeky dashboard, to little footwell room and harsh in town ride.

Service
Poor, good talkers but not so hot at fixing problms.
