On the road
Driving
Pretty much what I expected, but no threat to the Mercedes.
Performance
Not bad once you get used to the gearing, but not great on Motorways (noisy and revvy).

Living with it
Reliability
Build quality issues need to be battled with dealer to get resolved.
Image
Pretty good, especially if you want a convertible to use all year.
Comfort
Despite being 6 foot I seem ok (in the front).
-
Security and Service
Security
Alarm sensors are dodgy, meaning alarm goes off anytime until you get them replaced (2 so far).
Service
Oh dear... one dealer refused to even look at it being an import, car returned with faults dozens of times and was even sent back to Peugeot Technical centre in Coventry to resolve issues. Roof seals needed multiple replacements, brakes, tyres, trims etc.
